I feel like many balloon artist go real cutesy and fluffy, and that is just not my style. I like a modern clean look but also want it to feel fun and witty and maybe even a bit of a retro feel. (Can something be modern and retro at the same time?) Balloons are fun and happy and I don't take myself too seriously. I kind of envisioned having a balloon dog somewhere in the logo, but it's not a deal breaker, I haven't really been able to figure out how I would want it to fit in there. I really want my logo to make people smile when they see it. Balloons make people happy so I want to spark that same bright, colorful, happiness with a little bit of bad ass thrown in, when they see my logo.
