Yes, I make logos.

Here are just a few.

Some are just improved on. . .

Graphic Design:an extensive field with a deep reach

Preparation of a visual representation of an idea or message, such as print or broadcast advertisement or direct mail promotion package, including all aspects of the final image/package desired, such as illustrations, set typefaces, colors, paper stock, or arrangement of elements on a page. The design of any promotion must incorporate the marketing objectives and strategy, the production capabilities, and the budget limitations of the advertiser. Graphic design services can be provided by in-house staffs, advertising agencies, printers and lettershops, art studios, free-lance artists, and syndicated artwork services. An in-house staff can be economical if large quantities of design work are needed but limits the client to the style and skill of that pool of designers. Printer and lettershop staffs are usually adept at tailoring graphic designs to a client’s printing and production capabilities. Art studios offer a diverse range of talent but at a relatively high cost. Freelancers can produce very good quality at a more reasonable cost.
