self-portrait

Personal Symbols
Created a cohesive set of iconography utilizing simplification and abstraction to convey and translate personal feelings, beliefs, goals and identity.
They consist of a self-portrait, a hermit crab, a sun mascot, and a symbol for the phrase "keep going".
I specifically chose to use my favorite colors, include my favorite shapes, and utilize an illustration style inspired by the y2k era because I enjoy that period of design.
The self-portrait symbol represents my love for bunnies, the color pink, and my big glasses.
The hermit crab symbol represents my zodiac sign, cancer, as well as my love for caring for hermit crabs.

The sun mascot symbolizes radiant energy and how I value that, as well as my love for the sun, summer, and warmth.
"Keep going" portrays a person in distress, not knowing that there is happiness and light just around the corner. This symbol serves as a reminder to just "keep going".
