CREATE A PICTOGRAM



I remember having tremendous fun drawing this one, but can barely remember the actual assignment. It had something to do with creating a pictogram, and leaving out as much information as possible while still being able to see what the picture really was, and to use a font which would fit the picture. I can remember wanting to put "Tyrannosaurus Rex" in there, yet it'd be too long to fit. I'd have to make the text really small for it to fit so I decided to shorten it to T.Rex. No one in Holland ever says T. Rex though, it's a very English abbreviation. I'd learned about it through Jurassic Park. The fun thing for me was that I'd done something like thie before by drawing Michael Jackson this way, so this was one of the easier assignments for me.
