Once the drawing is complete and saved, simply run a remix on it using a suitable prompt to describe what you want in the final image.

Remove unwanted elements

You can remove unwanted elements from the image by using the pen tool and selecting the background color. In this example, the placeholder text on the menu design was removed, leaving space for a blank copywriting area.

In this case, the little spots around the pets were removed and a little patch of gold/brown removed from the dog's fur.
