A few years ago, someone approached me to redesign a cookbook she had made back in 1999, which needed a refresh. I had never done something like this, so I started looking through my own cookbooks for inspiration. After I blew off all the dust, of course.
After I had such success with my own boat logo, I offered my services on a Facebook group. I only got one commission. But I think it turned out well. I don’t remember the details of why she wanted the design she wanted. I hope she liked the logo.
As you may know, I have a sailboat that I’m rebuilding. In the process, I renamed it, and needed a logo.
A few years ago, I got a trademark for my logo. That’s cool and all, but it’s not really silly enough. I decided to make a coat of arms for myself. Plus, I’m not very good at vector images, so I like to do these dumb things periodically to refresh my memory. First, I needed…
