Four Goals: Day Two

My four goals for Friday, (Oct. 15, 2010) are:

1) Continue changing all of my buildings and plants to scale. So far, I have created an entirely new draft of my project and I have already re-sized all of the pine trees and the greenhouse is now a realistic size, as is the lot itself. Now I just have to create the "flowers" and other plants and make them to scale. I will probably be working on this all of the class period, since there are quite a few things that need to be made to scale. Hopefully, I will be completely done with resizing everything by the end of class, but it might push into the weekend slightly. I will begin placing all of my plants over the weekend.

2) Add a fountain to the reflecting pond. I want the pollinators to have plenty of areas to drink water, especially the birds. Also, adding a fountain is visually appealing. I will probably start this either in the second hour of class or over the weekend. This should probably only take up to a half an hour since it's easy enough to make a reflecting pond, so I would just have to do a bit in order to add a fountain to it.

3) Add a sitting area to the garden. I plan on putting the sitting area next to the greenhouse. I want to put some of the more fragrant plants near the sitting area so that when they are stepped on and crushed they make a pleasant aroma. I will start working on this when I begin placing my plants over the weekend, since I will be picking the more aromatic plants to go in this area.

4) Add the legend to the design itself. I have completely retyped the legend so now I can just copy and paste it onto the design. I plan on adding this in over the weekend, just so it doesn't get in the way of my design itself while I am working.
