Questions, answered

What is Roll a Drawing?

Roll a Drawing is a free drawing prompt generator. You pick a category — like robots, dragons or planets — then roll a die for each part of your picture. Every roll gives you a random idea, so you always end up with a one-of-a-kind drawing to make.

What should I draw when I have no ideas?

Pick any category and start rolling. The dice decide things like the shape of a robot's head or how many eyes a monster has, so you never have to think up the whole idea at once — the page hands you a fresh, surprising prompt one piece at a time.

Is Roll a Drawing free?

Yes. Roll a Drawing is completely free, needs no account or download, and works in any web browser on a phone, tablet or computer.

Is it good for kids and classrooms?

It's made for kids. It's a quick, screen-light warm-up for art class, a boredom-buster for road trips and rainy days, and a no-prep activity for teachers. Choose Simple for a few prompts or Deluxe for a longer, more detailed challenge.

Do I need real dice to play?

No. The dice roll right on the screen — just tap to roll. If you'd rather use real dice, you can: roll a six-sided die for each prompt and match the number to the choices listed on the page.
