Hi Helen, it's me again. Thanks for this fun class! I gave all of these assignments a go and it all worked as expected. But I was especially surprised by this exercise. Because you said the pieces need to be in a group to blend best, I did this at first. And indeed they blended well. Then I was curious what would happen if I moved the pieces away from each other on one side of the blend (still grouped). Still pretty normal, but also surprising in terms of the colours and the curls on the right.

Then I decided to shuffle the pieces around and I put all of them in one group. They had a party and danced off the art board! My poor computer was moaning and groaning, but it was worth the wait.
