Inkscape Spiral Activity

After doing the star activity in Inkscape, my class and I had to do another activity, but this time with another tool called the 'Spiral shape tool.' It creates all sorts of objects and depending on how you harness its advantages, you can make all sorts of various things ranging from flowers to actual spirals.

For the spirals I made, I simply clicked and drag on one of the pointers, which appear when you select on the spiral, to make it have more or less spirals depending on each person's preference. I also used some of Inkscape's effects and made my spirals more appealing than it actually really was. The effects can be shortcut accessed by holding the shift, control and F keys on the keyboard.

Although it was fun creating various shapes and objects using the spiral shape tool, I much more prefer using the star tool, simply because the outcome of the objects were more satisfying - both in its appearance and use.

Here is an image of what I had done:
