Hi everyone.

Ready to test your creativity? This week’s challenge invites you to explore the power of a single color!

Create an image using only shades and tones of one color, whether it’s cool blues, fiery reds, soft purples, or moody greys. 

 

The prompt I used: A surreal forest made entirely with shades of purple from soft lavender mist to deep plum shadows. Trees, ground, and sky are all variations of purple, creating a dreamy, otherworldly atmosphere. Light and depth come from contrast, not color variation.

I had difficulty getting it to only do pinks. Still didn't quite get there but i thought it was too pretty not to share.

In an alien world where colors take flight,
Mists dance, single colored and bright.
Greens to be found,
Just one tone all around,
A dreamscape in monochrome light.

Futuristic Zen city at night in only shades of blue. Sleek curved skyscrapers, floating walkways, reflective canals, and soft atmospheric fog. Use pale icy blue for highlights and deep navy for shadows. No orange, no yellow, no warm tones—lighting must be cool and fully blue. Depth, mood, and glow are created only with variations of blue. Monochromatic, high contrast, cinematic look.

The call of Nature!

Prompt: A photorealistic forest mountain landscape composed entirely of different shades of green. A lone hiker stands on a rocky cliff in the foreground, surrounded by tall evergreen pine trees. The background features multiple layers of misty, overlapping mountain ridges fading into the distance. The lighting is soft and diffused, evoking early morning or dusk. All elements — trees, mountains, sky, and the figure — must be rendered only in varying tones of green, from deep forest green to pale mint and lime. Wide vertical composition with a high contrast silhouette effect in the foreground.

LIVE FAST...

...DIE YOUNG

Prompt: A blue cat wearing sunglasses riding a blue marlin like it's a motorcycle in the blue water. The sky is completely blue. There are no colors other than blue. Monochromatic, blue hues and tones only.
Effects: Fantasy, Surrealism, Cinematic, Monochromatic

This cool cat is so bad to the bone he doesn't even care about stepping out of the monochromatic color scheme forced upon him by society.
