    We draw big flames coming out of the text as a way to


    exaggerate the meaning of the word.

    Hyperbole - Gerardo Sánchez

    We turned the U into a Marijuana leaf and draw little leafs


    coming out of both the R and the N, using a different
    meaning of the word (commonly used as slang): to burn is
    to smoke marijuana.

    Metaphor - Gerardo Sánchez

    We draw water splashing out from the letters. This is ironic


    as the meaning of the word is related to fire, and water is
    its opposite.

    Irony - Sebastián LiCausi

    We used matches as the basic element of composition of


    the letters, which are related in time and logic to the
    meaning of the word as they are capable of burning
    (cause-effect relation).
