For drawing #2, I made a design of Turnip-Head, a character in Howl’s Moving Castle. Each color in the drawing will be a separate engraving, with the darkest colors having the highest power and the lighter colors having less power. This way, I hope to create definition between each layer.

This is my Drawing #3, generated with the p5.js code. I plan to engrave the green and red at different powers. Here is the code used:

function setup() {
createCanvas(400, 400, SVG); // Create SVG Canvas
strokeWeight(1); // stroke thickness
stroke(255, 0, 0); // red
noFill(); // better not to have a fill for laser
}

function draw() {
translate(25, 25); //offset the drawing from the top left
for (i = 0; i < 100; i++) // the “for loop” counts up
{
// x location, y location, width, height
stroke(255, 0, 0); // red
ellipse( i, 3i, i, i); rotate(8i); // add rotation each time through the loop
stroke(0, 255,0)
ellipse( 5i, 2i, 2i, 2i);
rotate(2*i); // add rotation each time through the loop

}
save(“mySVG.svg”); // file name UNCOMMENT to save
print(“saved svg”); //UNCOMMENT to save
noLoop(); // we just want to export once
}
