character

This is a very simple character, but I think I have spent 4-5 hours all together from the moment I started. The first hour I searched the internet trying to find something that could inspire me to make my own figure. Then it tok just about one minute to draw the idea on a piece of paper and from there I've been sitting in front of my computer working in illustrator. And yet, I could have easily spent another hour or two to make it look better... (The last ten minutes I used photoshop to make the mirror look on the ground.)

New year, happy logo

Here is the final result, my first assignment this year.


Then I made these two, because they wanted me to change the emphasize from not only receiving, but equally giving. They liked the one with the people.



So I showed them the sketch and the first draft of the logo. I thought it was a nice metaphor for what they wanted to say, and I still do. But they did not like it, so I had to start all over again.


The Imi church asked me to help them make a symbol to express: "together for others" and I came up with this idea of beeing rescued.
