Question:
How to represent a personality symbolically?
What symbols can be used to portray the following qualities in a person, assuming that these qualities are based on how another person who doesn't know them well perceives them?
unassuming, friendly, sheltered, un-trendy, formal way of speaking, warm, unassertive, book-smart, street-slow, smart humor, easily amused, sensitive, ungroomed, disconnected, innocent.
How can one represent these qualities (a bulk of them) in one or two symbols? I need ideas to begin brainstorming. Thanks.
