Paraguay Economic Forum Logo Commission

This is a logo commission I just finished for the international conference, Paraguay Economic Forum (to be held in Milwaukee 2014). There are 3 other variations but this one is my personal favorite.

 And here are the others that I designed before the client decided on number 4.

HTC Commission - Logo and Website Design

Hey guys, check out my latest project! HTC or Healthcare Technology Consulting, LLC, hired me to create the look of their website and create a logo for them. I really like the way these turned out and my customer is happy too! :)

I just have the final logo and the home page here, for more of my work check out my portfolio on Coroflot.com - HeidiSchwartz

Tree Swing Sketch

Sketchy sketchy sketchy. I am too lazy to write a new post so I'm going to copy/paste exactly what I wrote last night on DeviantArt.

So here is what's going on with me lately:

Now that summer is getting closer I find myself with way more energy. Today was spectacular out, which was nice since my/my brother's car broke down about a car length from a super-busy road, and we were sitting in it for about a half hour waiting for a tow with the windows open. That was fun.

On my own: I've been working on a few things. Been hanging out at Studio Sunday - http://www.lovesickrobot.org/studiosunday/ - I'm working (slowly) on one really big project, that could really be seen as a massive amount of really small ones, and at least two other unrelated smaller ones...

At work: I'm designing a logo for IMCO Technologies - http://www.imco-tech.com/ - most promising product (IMCO-STAT).

I really like designing logos, although I've realized that making them for people who have no knowledge of art is practically impossible. For example, I made about 10 logos to start (all similar to the company logo) and the bosses got to talking about changes like changing the type on one to a font that was closer to the original logo. Here's the kicker-I had another logo, the SAME DESIGN with a font that was much closer to the one in the original logo. Totally frustrating.

Homework Post Logo Concepts

Look at this! Three posts and February isn't even done yet! Woot. Anyhows, I made this as a freebee for my brother and a couple of his friends at MSOE, for a project they've been working on. It goes like this: they created a website where people in classes there can post homework assignments and talk about problems they're having with them and other such stuff. They wanted a logo so below are the first batch of ideas, and some that happened along the way. The bubbles and the rainbows were mostly a joke. And after going back and forth with changes and improvements-here is the final one:I would like to include the link, but you can't see it on the site unless you register-and who wants to do that?
I think that I may make a few holiday versions too, although I can give no prediction of when that might appear up here...
