F1RST BLOG EVER!!!

So this is the first blog that I have ever posted in my life. I am sort of excited and stressed about it at the same time! What, with all the gadgets and craziness to add-I do not know where to start! I am a full-time student at Parkland College and I am trying to work part time to stay afloat. Aside from all the personal stuff, I have to post graphic design images that I like or attract me to them and mention where I found the image, what it stands for, dicuss its quality, and describe its function.

"Logos"

 
The picture that I chose for my blog this week is one that I found in the 2008 edition of Graphis Design Annual.  This logo particularly struck my fancy because, well, it is fancy.  I am always thinking of new ways to draw the letters of the alphabet and adding twists to them in a way I have never seen.  This appears to be the letter 'A' with an almost cursive take.  Either that, or its a star with a weird loop and no closing point.  This logo was done by Les Kerr Creative for Levenson & Hill.  I would have guessed it was for some new-age bar with 'A' in the title. Turns out, the website for Levenson and Hill is really quite amazing.  This logo is for a resort called The Austonian...you will have to just check this one out for yourself!
