Final project icons - 2

This week I continued to create icons for the final project. I have also integrated icons from various web sites that I have referenced over the past year and a half.

I am finding the whole process really stimulating and am constantly thinking and sourcing new iconic references to draw. The simple black and white style of the icons makes the artwork quite striking.

As I am currently reading Carl Jung's book, Man and his Symbols, I am also looking for iconic references for dream symbols that represent images from the unconscious.

To date I have 133 icons, but I estimate I will need between 300 and 400 icons in total to ensure a broad random mix of icons and themes both on the main and also within the inner sections.

I have also created an icon prompt book to email out to possible contributors.
