So far we've been telling Tina to do things over and over. Remember this example?
```python.run
import turtle
tina = turtle.Turtle()
tina.shape('turtle')
tina.left(90)
tina.forward(20)
tina.write("What color am I now?")
tina.forward(20)
tina.color("blue")
tina.write("What color am I now?")
tina.forward(20)
tina.color("purple")
tina.write("What color am I now?")
tina.forward(20)
tina.color("green")
tina.write("What color am I now?")
```
There's a lot of repetition. If we give Tina a list of colors and tell her to do the same thing with each color, we can make the same picture with much less code!
```python.run
import turtle
tina = turtle.Turtle()
tina.shape('turtle')
color_list = ["black", "blue", "purple", "green"]
tina.left(90)
for color in color_list:
tina.forward(20)
tina.color(color)
tina.write("What color am I now?")
```
We can now easily change how many times Tina draws as well. Try adding a new color name to the list. Here's what it would look like to add `"yellow"` to the list:
```python
color_list = ["black", "blue", "purple", "green", "yellow"]
```
Don't forget the **quotes** (`""`) around your color word!
Hit a snag? Don't worry! Tips:
- Remember to put your color name in quotes (`""`)
- Remember to include a comma (`,`) in between each color name and the next one
- Remember to begin and end your list with square brackets (`[` and `]`)
