To study the wetness of the land, I first classified the different surfaces with diverse water permeability. In the following weeks, I collected the ground's wetness information with rice paper by pressing it on the ground to absorb water. On the final day, I studied the relationship between how far the ink on the rice paper will spread and how much water is applied to it and utilized this to draw a section of wetness of the land on different days. The wetness information that I collected by rice paper is put above the section line, indicating how much water should I apply to the drawing.
