2. Slowly draw one long, looping, layered curved line without looking or lifting the tool.

3. Take a few minutes to just look at the image you created.

4. Envision where some straight lines would look good.

5. Using a straight edge, draw several lines imagining what each would look like first.

6. Color areas with the same intentional way you added the straight lines.
