This is the logo for Wine & Chimes, an annual fund-raising event for the National Watch & Clock Museum in Columbia PA. I was asked by the museum director to design a logo and two posters. I really enjoyed working on this logo. I felt that the 'wine glass' was the best choice of all the logos I presented and was happy that it was chosen. One poster was 11X17 and the other was 8.5X11. Below is the 8.5X11 horizontal poster.
Doing freelance work for a museum is really interesting. Unlike businesses, museums are more relaxed and less deadline oriented. This suites me especially since I am working full time as a non designer. The work is interesting as well because of the educational aspect. I've learned a lot about watches and the people who love them. I have been asked to do an exhibit next called Enlisted Time. The exhibit will be focused on time pieces used by American war heroes throughout history. Timepieces owned by George Washington and Lafayette will be on display along with local American veterans. The exhibit will be focused on the soldiers and their stories rather than actual wars or warfare.
