Shapes in Code

This piece was my first experiment using HTML and CSS as an artistic medium. I wanted to create something abstract and vibrant that would take up the whole screen and feel like a digital painting. I used simple shapes like circles and squares, played around with gradients, and layered them with blend modes to create a glowing, atmospheric effect. The angled stripes add a bit of motion and rhythm, almost like light slicing through the scene. I didn’t really know what I was doing at first, but that made it fun — I just kept tweaking sizes, colors, and positions until it started to feel like something. Even though it's all basic code, it felt really creative and hands-on. I’m excited to explore more and see how far I can push visual design with just HTML and CSS.
