Homework
Please sketch out 10 different possible ideas of symbols for a male and female person. The 10 sketches should be drawn on 1, 8.5 x 11 sheet of paper in pen or pencil (no color). With a ruler draw five even rows, and two columns, for each sketch. The symbols will be used in a poster you will be asked to design relating to tourism in NYC. We will discuss the project in more detail in our next class.
