New Logo & Confidence Coming to a Blog Near You




 Since the Flying Lessons course I've been working to up the anty on my art business. We (I mean "I") often can come up with more reasons why we can't do something rather than looking for creative solutions that fit our budget, skill and sensibility. Well I've been moping around because I didnt have a professional logo. And since I didn't have a logo and because I didn't have a logo I couldn't  get business cards and other marketing materials for M2BM. And since I didn't have those things I wasn't a real business and nobody would buy from such an amateur and blah, blah, blah....I know cry me a river right.

Well something finally clicked in this hard skull of mine and I decided to...do it myself! What a novel idea. Who would have ever thought I could make my own log?. But then again, who better to design the most accurate representation of me and my creations?

So I've been really excited this week as I've been building this little baby and even though its in it's early stages I'm liking where it's going. Unfortunately, I sometimes get caught up in wondering if others will like my art instead of making what my own heart mandates. But this logo is all about me saying who I am. Not just with the name of my business but creatively. And it feels very true if you know what I mean. And that makes me feel all warm inside like I'm already successful. And that always feels good. So the lesson today for Jenny is...do what feels good and it will be good enough.

Talk soon and big love!

  4. I love how you worked through your barrier. Sometimes you have to walk through the pity party to get to the Ah-ha! on the other side. It's like the preacher said "If you're going through Hell, keep going!" Moving forward, even tiny baby steps is still movement and each small victory builds on itself. Listen to your heart, let the music of who you are drown out the chorus of negativity. You can do it!

  5. This is exactly where I am - can't move ahead because I can't come up with a logo. So frustrating isn't it? My mind is all over the place - can't decide on color or what it should look like. I know I should take my time and let it come but like you I NEED IT NOW .....LOL Good for you - I'm inspired.
