Word Play Assignment, Part I

CLIMB

My word for the Word Play Assignment is Climb. The point of this assignment is to turn this verb into vector art. The art might include type and shapes- so the word and images. Here is my word list.


climb,
mountains,
ladders,
stairs,
hills,
the corporate ladder,
strength,
endurance,
hiking,
Mt. Everest,
rock wall,
the outdoors,
clif bars,
roller coasters,
Six Flags,
Mt. Fuji,
Mt. Rainier,
mountain men,
beards,
the Alps,
climbing gear,
climbing shoes,
trees,
childhood,
branches,
green,
brown,
wood,
difficult,
suits,
success,
failure,
struggle,
constancy

I have quite a few ideas of how I could turn "climb" into vector art, but I'm not sure if they would either be too cliche, or too abstract to understand the connection. I'll have to find a balance. I'm going to make some sketches and I'll post those. But first, here are some inspiration pictures.
