My Logo

My Logo

The Process

     This week, I created a logo to represent myself. I sketched out many ideas, but I couldn't find one that I liked enough. After a lot of sketches, I decided to combine some of my favorite ideas. There were a few options, and I was going to make them all on the computer, then decide which one I liked. The next day, I created my three designs on Adobe Illustrator. I created them in black and white, and then decided on a circle based logo. After that, I created many different color options. I had twelve different options to choose from, and I couldn't decide. Eventually, I narrowed it down to eight, then four, then two, and then my final logo.

The Design

My finished logo

     I chose a circle for my logo because I did not want any edges on my logo. I wanted to give a calming feel and I wanted it to look completed. The font was a little tricky for me. I experimented with all of the cursive typeface, but none of them looked the way I wanted. Since I had a specific way wanted the typeface, I used the paintbrush and drew it out. I used pastel colors of blue, orange, purple, and pink to create a sunset.  Like I mentioned earlier, I wanted to give a calming feel and sunsets remind me of feeling calm and relaxed.
