We need a logo designed for a small WY hobby farm.
We raise Gypsy Vanners and this breed has a ton to work with visually so we would like them to be the focus of the logo.
Not looking for something frilly/fancy/elegant. We are more rustic and down to earth, Wyoming is still very western vs a horse farm on the east coast. These are small draft horses, sturdy and wide and I think visually we would prefer something that pulls that into the logo.
The farm logos that I am drawn to are ones that you can tell the breed of horse at a quick glance... It's not just a horse. ;o) This breed is rare in the US and almost unheard of in my area. We have been using our actual brand (like cattle brand) for years but it's time to step it up a bit and have something a bit more pulled together.
The design does need to translate well to vinyl and either embroidery or screen print for jackets, etc.
The horse in the file "LF logo" is ideal because you know immediately they are Gypsy breeders.
The file "Chocolate" is nice and clean, like that.
The files "another farm" and "another farm.2" are just NOT our style.... *but* as you can see the Gypsy characteristics (heavy bone and lots of hair) are still quite present.
The files "logo1 & logo2" are just farm logos I like so you can a sense of things we like.
Hope all of this helps and can't wait to see what you come up with!
Thanks for looking!
