I made this logo for Valentine's Day.
It took me 8 hours to complete it. I started this from scratch.
First was making the heart. It was a pretty simple project, if I could draw, while using a mouse. It took me a few tries before I finally had one I liked.
The next step was adding the colors.

After adding the color's to my heart, I then used a smudge tool, and started smudging.
This was the final heart.

When I was done with this, and looked at it, I thought it was pretty cool. I mean all the colors mixed and mixed and mixed. And it turned out good. To me it looks warm and fuzzy. =o)
Here are the ones that didn't make the cut. I made a few of them before I picked this one.

So tell me what you think? I would appreciate it.

Hi Allen, well I tried to post this the night it appeared and my internet went off (damn hughesNet--satellite internet....is slow, just a little faster than dial up, and if there are thick clouds, heavy rain or snow or ice, well I'm lucky to stay connected)!
I like you heart logo a lot! The finished product looks like it was made of feathers. I also really like the one with the couple in the middle of it!
I can't do anything artistic on the computer LOL, and I was never good at etch-a-sketch!
Anyway....great work! Looking forward to the next one!
John,
Presidents day is the next, come and check it out too.
Thanks for the comment!
Allen
