First, I use the pencil tool to draw the hands. The fingernails are used pencil tool to draw them out. These hands are put in one layer named 'hand.' These hands represent the human being because these are the hands of a human.
Next, I use the pen tool to draw the tree. This is because I think using pen tool is easier to draw the outlined of a tree. The tree is put on another layer named 'tree.' The tree had cover part of the left hand but the hand still remain unchanged because the tree is on another layer. This tree represent the forest. It also means the last tree of the Earth.
Then, I draw the axe out on the right hand. The axe is drawn by using the straight line and rectangle tool. The axe is put on the third layer so that it will not affect the right hand. The axe represent the destroy. The axe is the weapon human use to cut down the tree from the ancient time.
I changed the outline to their suitable coloured by using stroke so that the outline will not show out and spoilt the symbol.The hands I use the light orange coloured. the part of the leaves is green in colour and the trunk is brown in colour. The axe is make up of black and brown colour.
I use the light orange colour for the hands because this the normal colour for the human hands. I use the colour tool and colour guide tool to colour the hands. Beside that, i also using the gradient to bring out the effect of the depth of colour. This colour also strongly symbolise human destroying the Earth using their own hands.

The tree and the axe I also use the same method when colouring the hands. The green colour represent the Earth and the colour become lighter means the trees in the Earth becoming lesser. The brown colour means the Earth becoming harder to live. The axe is the weapon to cut down the tree. The human taking the axe to cut down the tree means they still do not reliase what they are doing is causing the global warming. This is the complete of my symbol.
