I think of Snape as a nature lover - he's always out in the forest somewhere, he has the Silver Doe patronus, and he uses the book "1001 Magical Herbs and Fungi" as a textbook.
I recently learned how to use ready-made brushes on my artwork with GIMP, and I just love these floral patterns. So I made a batch of summery Snape icons using plants and swirls. I probably went crazy, and these may be too busy for some people's taste, but it's fun for me to add some real summery color to Snape icons for a change. He can't stay in the dungeon all the time!
I threw in some of the plain icons too. Feel free to use as bases.
