List of 象形/指事 kanji? (picture kanji)

Japanese Language Kanji
1

As you may already know, a small portion of kanji (~12% of jouyou) are just drawings. I’d like to see a compilation of them! I only know some like 木 and 馬 and 喿 and 三 etc.
Googling in English wields no results and I don’t know enough Japanese (or Chinese?) to google in that language.

Can you help me?

There aren’t really that many. It’s just a lie to ease new learners into the rabbit hole that is Japanese and Kanji :smiley:
