Canvas Final Project :)

Hi everyone!

For my final canvas project, I wanted to showcase a visibly appealing piece to the eye as well as allow the viewer to better understand what we've learned thus far in class. As pictured, I have compiled different size circles and lines to create a happy face (something we all need during this time) and various other shapes to add detail and depth to the image.

While creating my art, I made sure only to add things that were going to bring positive vibes off the screen; I love how this turned out as it has allowed me to express my creativity. I have to use curves, gradients, and several shapes to create a captivating image and engage my audience.

Being someone who is not artistically inclined, I knew that simple shapes and design patterns were the way to go. I decided to do very few aspects of this project in solid colors, rather gradients to give more depth. While this was very time consuming, and I had several hiccups along the way, the final product made it all worthwhile. I am proud of myself for learning how to work this new software, something I was in no way previously familiar with.

While I don't plan to be a professional coder, I am grateful that this project was one we had to conquer because it has given me a newfound confidence in digital design.

I hope you all enjoy my art! :)
