Project #2

I thought creating my logo was somewhat difficult. I had a lot of dude sketched until I figured out that I wanted to use my initials. Growing up I was always known as Erin Lovely. E and L standing for my initials- Erin Lackie. I tried a couple that had something that said Erin Lovely, but I feel like they were not really me. I have grown up so much. Although I have grown up, I am still fun, playful and quirky, but I wanted this logo to be more refined like me. I always write with a mix of cursive and print, which I used in my logo. The E and the L are cursive, and the M is print.

I love lines and shapes, I think when used freely and in doodles, they create a fun, quirky feeling. 

I also used a lot of hearts. Mainly, because I love everything. I am always in a loving and caring mood, sometimes I think I love and care too much, but hey, that is what makes me, me. I am also a believer in fate, and love at first sight and all of that good lovey dovey stuff. I work at a bridal salon and I am always surrounded by love so that is why there are so many hearts in my logo. 

Pink! Yes I love pink! I am a true girly girl and I tried to make that shown  with my final piece. I used color for the letters and I decided to do some digital altertrations to this logo. I added a pink filter to add some more color and to show that different shades of pink are shown because I am all sorts of shades of fun! 

I guess the creative thinking process I really used was brainstorming. This project just made me look into myself and who I am and what I love. The most important discovery I made the creation of my logo is that sometimes it is hard to represent yourself in such a little logo, but it can be done!  The most important thing I learned from all of the material for this project would be that logo used all of the elements and principles of art just like any other form of artistic expression.
