Draw attention effortlessly with AI-generated drawings
Explore the possibilities of AI drawing generation with Adobe Firefly. Learn how to quickly explore ideas, draught concepts and create artwork with simple text prompts and advanced techniques.
Get a hand-drawn look with an AI drawing generator.
Create sketches that mimic the look of pen and ink renderings using Adobe Firefly’s free AI drawing generator. Instead of the polished, hyper-realistic images often associated with AI drawings, you can easily produce minimalist line drawings in just a few simple steps. Try designing your own unique sketches, patterns, or branding concepts with ease.
Produce AI-powered sketches, concepts, and more.
Create quick sketches for your next fashion design or bring your idea to life with concept illustrations for a children’s book artwork. Adjust prompts instantly to explore new concepts, styles, and compositions without needing sketching or painting skills.
Choose from a range of artistic styles.
Select from a menu of effects to achieve the exact look you want. Options include classic styles like Line Drawing, Ink, and Sketch, as well as creative variations such as Stippling, Doodle Drawing, and Geometric Pen. Adobe Firefly AI Drawing Generator helps artists and designers bring ideas to life in vivid detail, whether creating web graphics or book covers.
Refine your results even more with photo to sketch capabilities.
Upload a reference image or choose one from the gallery to generate sketches in a similar style. Adjust the intensity and strength of the image to fine-tune the result. Add descriptive terms like “heavy stroke” or “loose hand drawn sketch” to your prompt, and explore the Colour and Tone menu to turn your photo to sketch with greater control.
Bring your drawing to live with Adobe Firefly.
Go beyond polished digital art with Adobe Firefly. Turn everyday ideas into expressive, sketch-style visuals—whether it's architecture, product design, or educational illustrations. Use text prompts, reference images, or both to explore endless creative possibilities with the AI drawing generator.
Draft product designs and prototypes
Start your product design journey with quick concept sketches of everyday essentials such as a bottle, a minimalist sandal design, or eco-friendly packaging for a brand. Firefly makes it easy to visualise ideas without needing advanced tools.
Build storyboards for animation or film
Sketch out frame-by-frame scenes for your next short film or animation project. Whether it is a rainy moment along a coastal promenade or a bustling street scene in a busy city, Adobe Firefly helps bring your cinematic vision to life in sketch form, perfect for pitch decks or pre-production.
Design bold, sketch-style posters or covers
Create poster drafts for events, music nights, or book covers with a raw, hand-drawn aesthetic. Try prompts like “line sketch poster for a live music night” or “zine-style cover for an indie art festival.”
Personalise stationery and wall art
Create greeting cards for celebrations with prompts like “hand-drawn candle with floral border” or “line sketch of lanterns on a balcony.” You can also design custom wall prints featuring iconic landmarks. Firefly makes it easy to add a personal touch to every piece.
Turn pets and people into inked portraits
Upload a photo of your family, your dog, or even a favourite local shop, and Adobe Firefly can transform it into a hand-drawn portrait with an authentic, heartfelt look, ideal for gifts, gallery walls, or sharing on social media.
