For this project, I decided to start with creating a graphic that I could use to repeat and make an aesthetically pleasing wallpaper with. While I was originally planning to create a function and place it in a for loop in draw, I instead implemented a nested for loop in my “bird” function. After creating my bird, I added different lines of grass that would change angles based on randomized x and y values. Additionally, a randomized variable would dictate whether or not a third piece of grass would show up.
