Creative Tools on The Table

Create scenes that show tools in active use or recently used, capturing the moment of creation through wear, mess, or implied presence (rather than finished results).

Examples of on-theme creations could include:

• paint-stained brushes, rags, or an apron left on a chair near a workspace
• a worktable covered in tools that show signs of recent use
• a close-up of creative equipment with the maker blurred or partially visible in the background
• a scene where the tools and materials suggest ongoing work without showing the final outcome

When making your art, keep in mind:

• The goal is active creation, not perfect results
• A short session is just as valid as a long one
• Follow your own interpretation of the prompt
• Let the process guide the outcome
