AI Drawing Prompt Reference

Draw a series of shapes to demonstrate the process of manipulating shapes using translation transformations. Start by drawing a line segment, then create a vector based on it and use the vector to translate the endpoints of the line segment to get new points. Draw a new line segment using these new points. Repeat this process with different vectors to translate the newly formed line segments, creating a hierarchical series of shapes through translation transformations.
