Love, Light, & Violin -- this is OPTIONAL
I'm a contemporary, Improvisational, inspirational violinist. Not a classical or orchestral violinist. I do freelance gigs with contemporary singers and their bands. I also perform as a solo violinist for weddings, corporate events, entertainment & arts industry events, funerals, & Christian ministry/church bands. I also teach the violin to children and adults as a private instructor.
Please take a look at the document I attached. This is a photo of me that represents my style: an unpredictable and "edgy" violinist, willing to go anywhere to bring light and love to the mind & heart through my violin-playing... Thus the "Halos" incorporated in the picture. Please take a look at how my bent arm holding the violin kinda forms the shape of the bottom half of a heart <3. And then the violin cuts across the middle of that heart. You have to imagine the top part completing the heart above the violin. So this is one idea of a logo-- the violin sketch embedded within a heart.
Please take a look at 2 artists whose style I admire, especially the font of their names and the overall "edginess" yet feminine style.

UPDATE: I've attached the actual images of the artists with name "fonts" that I truly am trying to capture. This part is so important as it will be on my website, business cards, merchandise, signage, etc. It will be the most important part of my logo. The "name" needs to stand with and without the "illustration".
Thank you!
