Changing ColorsI choose two basic icons. This first icon I choose to learn how to change the color. I after I watched a few online tutorials and meeting with someone who works professionally in graphics design I learned how simple it was to change the color of the icon. In these pictures I show how I changed the color from black to a shade of blue.

Designing Shapes
The next basic thing I learned in Illustrator is how to create simple objects to create very basic icons. As before, I watched online tutorials and had a graphics design show me how to create icons. I outlined how to create shapes to create icons in a short screencast. On top of creating the objects, I through in changing the color again to reinforced what I have learned previously.

1. What did you have to learn to complete this project? How did you learn it?
- For this project I had to learn how to use Adobe Illustrator. I used online tutorials and a quick training from a graphics designer.
- I benefited from this project from learning how to create basic icons on my own.
- Other having to learn a new tool I didn’t really find any struggles with this project.
- I will use the icons that I created and learned how to change the color in my thesis project.
- My next steps would be creating more advanced icons that would challenge me.
