I’m designing my new business cards, and decided I needed a new logo. At left is my old logo, from about 10 years ago, or so. I’m still working on the new logo, but I find it’s more difficult to design a logo than I really thought. Above are some of my attempts at an image from this evening.

     I want the logo to be simple, memorable, have a little splash of color, and show off my art in a playful way. At first I thought I’d just use an image I’ve already got, but none of the good ones were really suited for the tiny 3.5 x 2 in, space.

     So. New idea: Guy pushing a big pencil around and making an “s”. Then: guy carrying a big pencil like a fishing rod, casually across shoulder. Then: maybe guy is skipping. Maybe guy looks like I used to look, with shaggy hair and beard. Maybe he’s dancing around or something….
     I’ll show off the new business card logo when it’s ready. (Hopefully in time for my new website!)
