Venn Diagrams

If you are like me, then you love Venn diagrams. (Also, if you are like me, then good luck out there.)

Venn diagrams are spectacular. There’s something satisfying about how they capture, sort, and elucidate relationships between ideas, or “sets.” I use Venn diagrams when teaching kindergarten, and I use them in cartoons. Plus, circles are great. There’s no end to them!

If you’ve followed me on Instagram, you’ve seen me explore this wonderful way of creating a punchline of sorts. Here’s a Venn diagram I made years ago that still rings (unless you use a coaster) true.

And recently, I decided to challenge myself to create larger Venn diagrams to explore the relationships between three sets. It was fun but took some time!

And of course, here’s one just for

I love games and puzzles, so maybe that explains why I can’t get enough of these. We are all overlapping circles, unique in some ways and similar in others. It’s not deep, but always good to remember.

And here we are again, at the end. Hope you had fun!
