Designer wonders what it would be like if famous painters had their own logos
Have you ever tried to create a logo - either for your own business or for someone else? This is an activity that, as you may know, involves much more than just inventing a cute symbol with cool colors. It involves a lot of research, work and reflection and, contrary to what it may seem, is not easy at all.
For, according to Hidreley of Bored Panda, to exercise his own skills - and test his limits as a designer - the Brazilian Milton Omena decided to imagine what the logos of famous painters would look like if they had their own. And he selected a team of true brush legends to carry out his experiments. Check out the following result:
1 - Andy Warhol
Warhol was the pop art movement's top name, and he practiced his talents as a photographer and filmmaker, as well as a graphic designer, of course. For to create his logo, Milton was inspired by the bold colors and shapes that made the artist so famous. Look:
2 - Salvador Dalí
Irreverent, incredibly eccentric and creative. That was Dali, the artist who became a symbol of surrealism - and the visual identity that Milton envisioned for him is the one you can see below. Look:
3 - Leonardo da Vinci
To create da Vinci's logo, Milton decided to focus more on the “inventor” side of Florentine genius and used the old notebooks he left behind as a reference. Check out:
4 - Claude Monet
Milton considered the series of paintings Monet created in which he portrayed the famous Japanese bridge over the water lily lake in the backyard of his home in Giverny, France, to develop the artist's delicate logo. Take a look:
5 - Vincent van Gogh
Milton considered van Gogh's introspective side and was inspired by the Dutchman's iconic strokes to create his visual identity. Look:
6 - Pablo Picasso
In addition to being among the most famous painters in the world, Spaniard Pablo Picasso also explored his talents in sculpture. Here's what Milton developed from the artist:
7 - Jackson Pollock
One of the leaders of the abstract expressionist movement, Pollock became famous thanks to his unique style of painting - through ink dripping. And the logo that Milton developed for the artist reflects this aspect very well. Check out:
8 - Piet Mondrian
Primary colors, well-defined geometric shapes and straight lines are the most striking features of Dutch Mondrian - one of the 20th century's most influential artists. Here's what Milton developed from this iconic figure:
