Reflection

At the beginning of the project, instead of coming up with an idea of what to make with lines, I wanted to practice getting used to using the for() function and seeing how it affects the shape and look of the lines. After a while, I felt that what I was beginning to form looked like an eye, and so I decided to work towards that as the goal of my project.
