We were taught to create a Garden Screen as a static visual as shown as below :

1. Hills (Layer 1)
• Firstly, use 'line' tool to create 2 hills.
• The curve line can be created by dragging the line.
• Use 'paint bucket' tool to paint the hills
• Set up the 'fill colour' in 'linear' type (combine two or more colors).
• Drag the 'paint bucket' tool to create a gradient color into the hills.
2. Tree (Layer 2 or create more layers to ease us later)
• 
  
• Use 'pencil' tool to freely draw the tree and use 'oval' tool to draw the leaves of the tree.
• Use 'paint bucket' tool to paint the tree with the same method painting the hills.
3. Sun (Layer 3)
• Use 'oval' tool to draw the sun.
• Use 'paint bucket' tool to paint the sun.
4. Background of the visual (Layer 4)
• Use 'rectangle' tool to draw a rectangular shape which is covering the whole the screen.
• Use 'paint bucket' tool to paint the background.
5. Clouds (Layer 5)
• 
  
• Use 'oval' tool to draw cloud.
• Use 'oval' tool repeatedly and overlap the previous oval shape made until the shape of cloud as we expected is created.
• Use 'paint bucket' tool to paint the clouds.

We will be taught to add the motion into the shape...I cant wait.. ;)
