Inspiration and Icons

ICON (ī'kŏn'):

1. An image; a representation.

2. Representation or picture of a sacred or sanctified personage, traditionally used and venerated.

3. An important or enduring symbol or person.

4. A small, on-screen, 

graphic element that represents.

The etymological idea underlying icon is of ‘similarity’. It comes via Latin īcōn from Greek eikṓn, which was derived from a prehistoric base meaning ‘be like’. From ‘likeness, similarity’, eikṓn progressed semantically via ‘image’ to ‘portrait, picture’.

Who or what inspires you? 

Pull out that gold paint you thought you would never use,

but first really who is it?

Come with images...plenty of images.

Spend sometime looking up color and number meanings.

Plenty of sites to play around on the right...
