Icon Set School Assignment: 

Create three icons that each represent a common New Years Resolutions. The icons should look like a set and can only use black and white. 

​

I focused on using the shape as a way to unify the style of the icons and make them look like a set. Each icon follows the same curve on the bottom right of the circle. I kept the amount of black and white about equal in all three icons. 

​

It was a challenge to only use black and white. I also wanted to avoid using linework - instead opting for bold, graphic shapes. I'm particularly happy with the way I illustrated the sheep in the first icon - especially the white part of the wool being against the white background. I used the shapes of the arm and foot to create closure for the rest of its body to distinguish them, without the use of linework.
