2D graphics refers to images that have only two dimensions: width and height. These graphics are created using various software tools and can be found in many applications, such as video games, animations, and illustrations. They are typically represented on flat surfaces, like computer screens or printed materials. In 2D graphics, shapes, colors, and textures are combined to create visual representations. Common techniques include drawing, painting, and using vector graphics, which are based on mathematical equations. This type of graphics is essential for creating user interfaces, logos, and other visual content that does not require depth perception.
