Reflection

My interpretation of the object was a wrist watch sitting on the table the way you take your watch off and put it somewhere when you get home. So it was consisting of a circle as a face, and two triangles as a wrist. But, when I looked at some pictures online, I noticed it would be more challenging if I pseudocode it the way sellers place watches in their showcases. The reason was I would be able to draw more shapes such as ellipse and quad in addition to circles and triangles. As well as asymmetrical shapes so I had to rotate and merge them. Though, when it comes to draw in 2D primitive environment, it is tough to transmission feelings, dimensions, and viewing angles versus 3D. In order to make a difference between outside and inside the wrist, I tried to use and blend different colors and strokes to transmit this sense. Along with it, the other difference in interpretation was finding the points on Cartesian Coordinate System, especially when I wanted to translate and rotate.
