I need a logo to use as the cornerstone of my (still developing) personal brand - open to options around using my name or initials: Can be my first name (Yvette), my initials (YE) just my first initial ("Y") my whole name (Yvette Erasmus) -- It could be "Y's" (wise).
Could be only text and could also be text/image or an icon using the letters Y and/or E.
I'd love gold foil worked into an option and collected example logos that appeal to me here: https://www.pinterest.com/yvetteerasmus/name-logo-ideas/
I like greens, golds, greys, blacks, whites
I am a writer, speaker, psychologist, trainer specializing in Compassion, Collaboration and Communication - leadership development and personal transformation; empowerment of women. Leadership skills, deep listening, authentic relating and healing. All about Heart and Soul and Power. The final design should convey clarity, balance, beauty, sophistication, luxury, feminine power.
