I made a draw_leaf function and put it into a shapes.py because I think the leaf is pretty good. I started trying to draw the trunk / branches / roots of the tree, but it's not finished so I didn't put it into shapes.py yet. It was easy to make the leaf, I used two 90 degree arcs and a straight line between them equal to the chord length. I was trying to make branches with more branches coming off of them, but it was difficult to make the branches repeat the way I wanted to, so I am now just trying some basic rods for the main branches, and then once I figure out the loops for that I will figure out how to do loops to make little branches off of the main branches.
(Drawing project)

Description
(Describe your goal for this project. If you want to link to an image, move the image to this directory, and then use the following syntax:
For this project, I want to make an animated tree with the leaves changing color and falling down.
---I am adding this line so it lets me do a commit message.---

Planning
(Include your planning here, including your project milestone.
To complete this project goal, I will first draw a base for the tree, made up of a trunk and branches. To simplify this, I will write a function which draws a branch, and call it to make many branches of different sizes and positions.
I will write a function for drawing a leaf, which will change color based on the time.
Lastly, I will write a function for the leaves to fall from the branches to the ground.
My milestone will be having the static image complete.)
