new logo for me


ok, its official... this will be my new logo.  i have never been totally happy with any of my pedale logos upto this point.  for this logo i decided to do another mash up of a traditional german script font.  taking things apart and putting them back together has always been an important part of my design; so, naturally i wanted to incorporate that in my brand.  for some time i have always been drawn to german letters and i could not remove the idea shown above from my head.  i spent about 15 hours over the last 2 weeks tweaking and adjusting the new letter to my specific preference.   i made over 50 versions, all a little different from the last.  finally, i am happy with this logo and believe it was the most crafted work i have created yet.

shapes


a couple of weeks ago i started making shapes at random.  i decided to start looking at the shapes i created and see what objects they reminded me of.  once i discover the object, i manipulate it fit the shape it reminded me of.  this is my first try... i havent really developed the idea, but i am happy with how this first one turned out.  the shape below the word is the random shape that i started out with.
