Task
Create an image in a graphics application of your choice.
Details
Try to reproduce the picture below. You can make the picture bigger than it is here, if you wish, but try to fit it on one A4 page.
Save the file as "Ocean Scene".
Notes
Pixel-oriented graphics applications (such as Microsoft Paint, AppleWorks, or Gimp) have a range of tools available to help draw images such as these. These applications are best for images that will become part of a web-based presentation.
Microsoft Word (and the other members of the Office Suite) have a range of drawing tools based on shape objects. They are often suitable for pictures and diagrams that are not too detailed or require sophisticated techniques. In particular, Word's drawing tools offer a variety of shapes that can be stretched, scaled, and in some instances altered.
Adobe InDesign has a much more sophisticated range of drawing tools. Although InDesign is regularly used for complicated or detailed images, it can readily prepare images similar to the ones here.
