AI Drawing Prompt Reference
Draw a square on a grid. Then, draw three sides of an equilateral triangle from each vertex of the square. Next, use the properties of equilateral triangles to draw a series of points around the square, with the arrangement of these points related to the side length and angles of the equilateral triangles.
