I used the colors red and Blue because they are colors that majority of people like and also it looks good together i also used the font and the triangle because it makes it look like the M and can see the V. i learned how to make a stroke and make it bolder. i think i could have used my time better and it looked a little weird and so i used the pathfinder tool and the expand appearance and the ungrouping buttons to make it look better. i need to work on using the same colors on the M and the triangle and making the strokes look the same.  i named it The Matthew Vanderslice.
