Logos should be clean and easy to reproduce at any size. The “Hot Marketing Now” logo is an exception to the rule because they wanted to match a certain donut company’s sign.

This logo design was among three I presented to the client, he chose the one I least liked. This one here is the one I most liked. Isn't nice to have a portfolio to only show logos that I like the most.

I don't know what happened to this business. I got this project right at the beginning of an Ecommerce business that I started, so I don’t remember much about it, except that they were going for a Zen approach (hey, that’s right up my alley!). I presented a variety of ideas, but this one with the Enso is my favorite.

Really old stuff for Digiscribe in 99.

This was a trade logo for my brother who used to provide discounted rates to me for my daughter's piano and voice lessons. I like how I didn't use a cliche image. This logo is clever.

Yoga logo for Julie who hasn't opened her business yet.

The client ended up combining elements from the ideas I'm presenting here to make a final logo. But I'm not showing that one.

The idea behind Peekaby was a place where parents can store and share their memories of their children. A quick check and I see that they didn't get it launched. An interesting side note is that just a few weeks before this job came my way, I had a dream that I was designing a logo with a double "e" and that I would make them into eyes. I really love this logo.

I wanted something retro. The client wanted a logo that had the world with a truck going around it, kinda like a mixture between Expedia and Evos (their old logo). I also thought that the logo should be colorful and really represent something wholesome too, with vibrant, healthy colors. Everyone concerned really loved it.

It was 1994 and I had recently become a freelance graphic artist. My sales force, consisting of my husband (now ex), brought the project to me, along with a detailed schematic of the product itself. This was a very thin-lined drawing, similar to a blue print. He said that the customer wanted the schematic in the logo. I knew that it wouldn't work because it wouldn't reduce well (no one would be able to tell what it was). Plus, it was fugly. After learning about the product, I drew this simple illustration. The Moisture Control Pipe is an innovative system for underground irrigation for medians and lawns. This was the only logo I presented to the client: even though it wasn't what they asked for: they loved it!

They sent me the Krispy Creme logo and said they wanted theirs to look like that. Whatever copyright or trademark infringements are theirs, I'm just showing off here. I actually won't do a logo like this these days

For one short month, I worked for Horizon Marketing years ago. Since I had just had a baby and they wanted just too much from me, I quit and ended up working with Digiscribe. Horizon asked their design team to redesign their logo, so each of us submitted what we had. Mine went to the top of the pile, but they ended up going a different way. That's the way the cookie crumbles.

This PGA Professional's old logo was pretty shabby. He said he didn't want the standard elements of a ''Golf'' logo. I had problems with the text of the logo being quite long, but worked it out somehow. The customer really loved it!

Finance Resource Center provides loans and insurance on marine or recreational vehicle purchases. FRC a division of Priority One Financial Services, Inc.

The client wanted a spiral but to convey more about what this organization is about I adjusted the text to be like the lashes on an eye.

This logo was designed in 1999 and it was the first project I did when I worked for Digiscribe. The client's old logo just didn't look good, the characters ''EX'' in executives stood out and at first glance it read ''EX-Executive''. I wanted to design a logo that portrayed what this company does: helping executives. Therefore the two Es are linked in a friendly, helpful way. The customer loved it!

Once again, when I was searching for logos to add to this portfolio, I found this one and I hardly remember designing it. After having my daughter, life has gone by kinda blurry. I remember the customer’s name is Louise and that she was really nice. It's a unique logo and very easily identifies what the business is all about.

I had this idea for a t-shirt line, made the designs, loaded them up at GoodStorm, GoodStorm got bought by Zazzle and I didn't have the time or inclination to make a new site at Zazzle then I forgot to renew the domain, so some other person has it. Oh well...

I designed this logo years ago when I worked for Digiscribe. I really like the colors and the font modification.

Years ago, I worked for the awesome people at Digiscribe. It was 1999 and I had just given birth to my daughter. I was in deep need of an income and wanted to try my hand at web design. They hired me and we had a good thing going for many years. Then I accidentally shot one of them and it was over (just kidding)

This was a fun one! I got the request for designing this logo because the client was so happy with the logo I designed for their main company, Priority One Financial. They picked another logo I designed, but I'm only showing the one I dig. You dig?

This was created a few years ago when I was still doing occasional work for Digiscribe. Brandywine Companies holds commercial real estate, mostly strip centers from what I can recall. They went with another logo with a sun, something they got done in house, I believe. I liked this design, so I'm posting it.

Azura Capital once was a division of Priority One Financial Services, Inc. It was a financial concierge for the higher end boat owner - yachts and that kind of thing

I designed this when I worked for Digiscribe years ago. Nothing much to say about it. I just wanted to show some corporate logo designs.

This project came my way via Digiscribe. 3 Degrees provides people networking consultation and training. This was my concept, since I didn’t get any direction at all. Anyway, since this business opens doors, I created this logo with an open door and the degree sign is the knob. It’s one of my favorites.

Being deeply loved by someone gives you strength, while loving someone deeply gives you courage.
