Why this is meaningful, atleast to me.Well, this "piece of art" is meaningful to me not as a whole but, because of the many different elements that makes up this "piece of art." For example, I like the red palette so that's why this whole piece is based around a pink base with a bit of black to stand out in the light colors. Which goes to the next element that's meaningful to me, the black cats. To get this out of the way, my favorite color is black alongside red, I just think it goes with everything. And cats, they're my favorite type of animal. They're cute, mind their own business and aren't energetic all the time like a lot of dog breeds I know. So, I combined those things to make a black cat, even though I like the cats with snow white fur. Anyways, moving on. Strawberries are one of my favorite fruits, probably in my top 3. Also, may I mention that my favorite "snack" to munch on is bread. Although it's not good for my skin so I had to stop.. And that's why the cat says nothing but stare at the food longingly, however inside its fuming that it can't eat this yummy looking snack. Oh and I just added the strawberry jam there because whenever I look at the Pinterest toasts, most have jam that makes it look ten times yummier. And finally, the plaid handkerchief is just there because I thought it added more flavor to the whole piece. To summarize this design, the black cat represents me, who constantly wishes to eat something sweet and silently fuming whenever I saw something that looked good, and this whole thing is portrayed in a red theme.

Some things I learned.Today, I learned how to modify a shape's appearance. I also learned how to compound said shapes in four different ways, which the four ways to compound a shape are union, subtract, intersect, and difference. Overall, a pretty chill lesson before the final project in my opinion, I'm looking forward to how I'll incorporate this lesson into my final project!
Some things I learned.Today, I learned what layers are, how to group elements together, and to ungroup them as well. I also learned and played around with alignment options in Gravit. Then, I took everything I learned and created this black circle chain with blue highlights at the bottom. I'd say this was also another pretty good and relaxing lesson as any other.
Some things I learned.Today, I learned how what fill and borders actually are in graphic design/vector design. I learned how to fill in shapes, and I also learned how to give them borders. I also messed around with the corners of the shapes, and the borders too. I also learned what opacity/transparency is. And all in all, this was yet again another aesthetically pleasing use of my time.
Some things I learnedToday, I learned the difference between the Pointer and the Subselect tool in Gravit. And, I learned their uses and how to use them. I'd say my experience in doing so was pretty relaxing. Also, modifying a shape's anchor points with the Subselect tool is actually very satisfying and I actually spent more time than I thought I would modifying the anchor points until I actually found something I was ok with. All in all, very satisfying lesson.
Some things I learned.One thing I learned while catching up on work was, making graphic design is actually really satisfying. Like, making boxes or squares in different shades of red, my favorite color actually. AND having all these texts in the center and sort of spaced apart evenly, just- It's just that I think the end product can be such eye candy, since its so aesthetically pleasing. Atleast for me. Plus, I also learned the inner workings of Gravit the site. All in all, I had a fun time.
Ok so this is my first blog post- Soo I've had a couple of experiences with graphic design in the past like for example with using Google Presentation and Canva for assignments or Tech class. We'd get assignments to make some graphic design, one that I remember in particular was when we were making pixel art or whatever its called. Why I remember it so vividly is probably because I've done something similar in the past. It's called Minecraft Creative Mode. I thought it was a good idea one day to try to make a cat except pixel in Minecraft because yes. But all I remember is that is scarred me for life and it was one of the most frustrating things I did in the art department..
