1.The steps it required me to create this project in Illustrator were inserting shapes and using the selection tool to resize or move the shape around and then I used the widgets to round the corners if needed. Next I changed the fill and stroke to change the color of my shapes inside and out. After that I saved my work by going to file and clicking save, then I took a screenshot of my layers by using (command+shift+4) and exported my work to my wix website.

2. Vector graphics are files that can be moved or expanded without losing their quality. Raster Graphics are files made out of pixels. For example I would use vector graphics to create or resize a logo design. And I would use a raster graphic to edit an image.
​
3. In addition to vector and raster graphics, 3 similarities between Adobe photoshop and Illustrator are the pen tool, the use of layers and the color palette. The difference between the two is that photoshop is raster based and best used to edit, create, and color/paint photos. Meanwhile Illustrator is vector based and best to create logos, images with texts that will never pixelate.
​
4. The mastery level I think my project demonstrates is a 3.
I give it a 3 because I think it meets the learning target, I combined shapes, use the pen tool and use color. Next, time I think I can try and create new shapes by drawing them with the pen tool and curve tool.
