Stumped

Another rejected illustration

I’ve been slowly chipping away at the more conceptually difficult illustrations for my book. I’ve been pleasantly surprised that I’ve been able to resolve some of the really tough ones that I was feeling were impossible just a few days ago.  Mostly I’ve been brainstorming out loud with my husband, talking through possibilities and ideas. For the most part this process has been very effective, and we’ve come up with a number of solutions that I know I wouldn’t have been able to do on my own.

I have five concepts that have me completely stumped. Here they are:

1) Diversity, peer group, community

2) Being objective

3) Making a mistake

4) Face to face interactions (without drawing two faces)

5) two way exchange, alertness

Any suggestions for images that could represent these ideas?
