For each logo, I started with the text first before deciding on the bigger picture (where the spoon will fit into the logo). Next, I designed the spoon using the shape tool to create a general shape before adding the curves.
I would then go in with shading, using the smudge tool for added effects on lighting and shadows. Once I have my spoon and the desired text, I make the background. For the big spoon logo, I used a pattern tool for a picnic look. For the little spoon logo, I used the lasso tool to create the tunnel effect, added layers, lightened the colors on every layer leading to the orange background, and added a dot pattern for a cartoonish look.
Lastly, I duplicated the logo, darkened one of the copies, moved it slightly to the left, and changed the opacity to create the shadow.
This logo is fairly simple, it was the first one and the pattern reminds me of something you would see on a bathing suit.
For this one, I made the design for the cherry and the limes. duplicated them and moved each around to create the pattern. I then made the background black, used a dot pattern tool for the grey dots, and filled the background. Lastly, I slapped on some text and created a line underneath it.
what I would change about this piece might be the text itself. Maybe some shadowing to help it stand out or make it pop against the background that you automatically get drawn to.
Each logo consists of the use of the oval tool for general shapes, original and copy designs, and the mirroring tool. Each has its hand-drawn designs (the pumpkins, acorns, and leaves for the logo on the left and the entire face for the logo on the right). Pattern tools were used for the freckles (on the right) and the dotted texture (on the left).
Lastly, I added the text and decorated it accordingly to make the text look natural in the logo itself. This meant adding the braces to the teeth or creating an oval, adding a border, some decorations from the background, and a fancy line.
Both logos look like a place that welcomes children, which was the look I was going for, the pastel colors and the simple design are easy to look at and can be understood at first glance. Maybe adding teeth to the background of the dentistry logo as a pattern would make it pop out more, however, overall I think each came out great.
Made the same way as my previous Harvest Hills logo, the Suds & Serenity logo was just a spin-off of a Bath and Body Works store or something like Lush. I love the bright colors and the use of bubbles for the logo's frame.
I also see a trend of incorporating the background pattern into the logo, so if only the logo is used, the piece's entirety isn't lost.
Besides the tub being a little lopsided, I love it.
