For my style and design class, I was assigned to create a personal logo in Photoshop. I quickly decided that I wanted something simple and visually appealing, but not flashy. Its solid, using the same primary blue color as the rest of my site. I was inspired by a couple templates on Canva, a powerful web-based design program. I then created it in Adobe Photoshop, per the rules for the assignment. If it were my choice, I would’ve used Adobe Illustrator instead, which would have made it easier to export as a vector.

I love working with vector artwork, resizing designs to my appropriate need without concern for image degradation. For example, my nameplate at the top of each page in this site is an .svg file, which is a much smaller file than a .png or .jpg file, However, it retains sharp, crisp edges at any screen resolution. For more examples of designs I’ve created, please contact me here.
