Exactly a year back, I was in my 1st year, 2nd semester when I got selected in GirlScript Pilani core team as a designer. I think I got selected because I have worked in TEDxBKBIET. And my seniors have got impressed with my work. So when I got the mail, I was happy but, at the next moment, I was a little freaked because I didn’t have that much experience and not that much frequent user of Photoshop or any other software. So our community leader suggested me a site canva it’s an amazing site to start designing, easy to use, and understand interface.

What is Canva?

Canva is a graphic design platform, used to create social media graphics, presentations, posters, documents, and other visual content. The app already includes templates for users to use. The platform is free to use but offers paid subscriptions like Canva Pro and Canva for Enterprise for additional functionality.

There are pre-designed templates that help to think and make good posters, cards, etc… This is the site of canva:- https://www.canva.com/

Just go and make a login and explore.

Then after a month, I started learning Adobe Photoshop for making some amazing things

So What is Adobe Photoshop?

Adobe Photoshop is a raster graphics editor developed and published by Adobe Inc. for Windows and macOS. Photoshop can edit and compose raster images in multiple layers and supports marks, alpha composting and, several color models including, RGB, CMYK, CIELAB, spot color, and duotone. Photoshop uses its own PSD and PSB file formats to support these features.

This is paid software but really amazing software, we can do many things in it. You can download this software from other places for free also.

Then I got one more site, poster my wall its a superb site, there are many fantastic designs that we can use. This is the link to the poster my wall:- https://www.postermywall.com/

Recently I am learning Adobe Illustrator. So this was my journey.
