Watercolor Logo Design

I recently tried doing some hand-drawn watercolor stuff for logos. I want to paint more so I figured I'd try it instead of making vectors in Illustrator.

It's a bit faster since I'm more comfortable drawing on paper than on a tablet. For my vectors, I don't use a tablet or a mouse to draw them. I always use the touchpad on my laptop. I've been doing it for so many years that I just can't get the hang of using a mouse again or anything else.

Here's a watercolor design I made for Cottage Knits & Crochet. She wanted it to have a beach cottage feel with blue hydrangeas and shells.


Now I'm coming up with more ideas for some premade logos for Minty Fox Designs! I really want to paint one with a yarn theme. And maybe a kitty one... oh, and succulents.
