Project #1
Draw a heart in Python. Convert the code to graphics.py rather than Turtle. (No fill and no pen, just the outline.)

Python 3.14.3 documentation - Turtle graphics
The command "turtle.right(30)" rotates the turtle (pen) in-place 30° clockwise.
Project #1a
This is not necessary but you might want to give it a try.
The heart code draws curves (half circles?).

Project #2
Expand Project #1 to include user input on the color, size, and location of hearts to be drawn. Set reasonable limits.
Another Version of the Draw a Heart (Found on the Web)
import turtle
# Set up the screen
screen = turtle.Screen()
screen.bgcolor("white") # Set the background color
# Create a turtle object (the "pen")
heart = turtle.Turtle()
heart.speed(1) # Set the drawing speed (1 is slow, 0 is fastest)
heart.color("red") # Set the outline color
heart.fillcolor("red") # Set the fill color
# Start drawing the heart shape
heart.begin_fill()
# Start the left side of the heart
heart.left(140)
heart.forward(111.65) # or a similar length, e.g.,
# 133 or 180 depending on the exact shape
# Draw the left curve
for i in range(200):
heart.right(1)
heart.forward(1)
# Draw the right curve
heart.left(120)
for i in range(200):
heart.right(1)
heart.forward(1)
# Complete the right side
heart.forward(111.65) # Use the same length as the left
# forward movement
heart.end_fill()
# Hide the turtle cursor and keep the window open
heart.hideturtle()
turtle.done() # or screen.exitonclick() to close on click
