Year 1 Computing 1.2: Using lines and shapes to create digital pictures

From My Second Brain

Digital painting tools have various tools to help us draw pictures, the undo tool lets us go back in a drawing one step at a time. The line tool helps us draw straight lines.

We can use the shape tool to create shapes, the shapes your program will allow you to create depends on the program. You could for example create an abstract art using the shapes tool like the work of artist Piet Mondrian who lived 1872 - 1944.
