About this skill

You say

Make backgrounds for my website hero

It said back

I made four wide hero backgrounds (1792×1008). None has letters or logos, and all four match in grain and softness. I checked them on the sheet rather than opening each file at full size.

  • Dawn: deep navy into violet, with a coral and peach glow at the lower right.
  • Mist: pale grey-blue with drifting white light. It reads a little like faint misty hills.
  • Lagoon: teal into deep green, with aqua ribbons curving across the right.
  • Ember: warm cream into peach and rose, with a golden curve at the lower right.
