Round SEVEN

[timetobegin]

THEME
For this challenge, you are going to do some math! Each icon must have two (or more!) visible techniques in it. Any technique is generally acceptable, but here are is a not so comprehensive list; negative space, close crop, text, textures, lighting, obscure crop, wide crop, no eyes, unnatural colouring, blocking, levels, drawing, chiaroscuro, black/white, rotated, solid background, blending, vibrant colouring, muted colouring. Anything else you can think of fine, as long as you can explain it.
This doesn't HAVE to be a hard challenge; you can use as many different combos as you like, or the same one, but do challenge yourself!
If you need more inspo, i recommend technique20in20
You do NOT need to have a theme this week, but you may if you wish

Examples:

negative space + text | lighting + black & white | contrasting colours + close crop | texture + obscure crop | blending + contrasting colours
