What Is A Logo?

A logo is a symbol, design, or mark. It is an image that is used so that you recognize a business, organization or a person. It is a powerful little piece of art!

Let's look and talk about some logos!















My father was an artist. He would come home from work and show us his ideas for logos. He always wanted to know what I thought of his ideas. He created the logo below. This logo has changed over the years, but a good design stays pretty much the same. Why do you think that is so?


 Artists take pride in designing creative logos. Here are some things to think about:

* Some logos are just pictures...some logos need a little text (words)

*The words or image can be made in a way to show a certain "look".


*The colors should be eye-catching...
excited bright colors....cool relaxed colors...no color....high 
contrast

* A powerful logo is bold and simple



Think about yourself and make a logo for the front of your ArtiFact Book. Use the framed rectangle for your work. You can use a "logo idea" sheet to sketch, if you wish.

 


 What is one important thing about you? 
 Is there something that you are really interested in?  
What do you stand for?
