AI Drawing Prompt Reference
Draw a polygon defined by four points, then find the midpoint of each side to form a smaller polygon inside. Connect the diagonals of the original polygon and locate their midpoints. Finally, create several smaller polygons using these midpoints and the vertices of both the original and inner polygons to illustrate the midpoint construction process.
