Lab 5: Pen Tool Exercise

Reflection: I learned a lot in this exercise. I was not aware of all these different ways to use the pen tool, so drawing all of these patterns was eye-opening. I thought it was easy after 2o minutes of attempting to figure it out, but it was quite challenging. I could not figure out the option or control keys, making it very hard. I was getting quite frustrated. My submission could be improved if I spent more time on the curves with corner points exercise, but I could not figure it out. Luckily, you just said to try it. The professor could improve the assignment with more explanatory directions on the worksheet. I can apply this knowledge to the rest of my drawing in Illustrator now that I can actually use the pen tool. I was helped through the professor’s step-by-step class instruction.
