Kent, Apologies that this did not make it to the top of the heap. I feel bad as I love chatting back and forth with you, and I love your design sense and style. If we do another contest ever in the future, I will reach out and hope you participate. I know you are seeing a lot of success here on the platform, it is well deserved. Have a great holiday weekend!

p.s. This was still my wife's favorite, but some of the other stakeholders prevailed.
I guess my Mom with my grandfather and grandma had a pretty big farm. Mostly corn but then had another area for their own vegetables. We he passed away when my mom was 16 they had to sell the majority of it. Another long day harvesting? I did a logo and a lot of other work for a winery in Texas. Recently they had a grape stomp similar to the I Love Lucy episode.
Grapes are ripe now. So are plums. And last bit of elderberries. Apples are starting to drop. A bit early, not sure what is going on there. Apples and pears should be a few weeks out. Not so much now. Still learning though! Could just be the weather, and different varieties.
Thanks Kent. Like the this one more than 305. Will move into ranked. Not sure yet on how I feel about this approach versus 217. Need to sleep on it. And that is just what I'm going to go do now. Sleep! Back on sometime in the morning. Cheers!
Completely understand. What is being harvested right now?
Probably up early all the way to last bit of sunlight trying to get as much done as possible.
Thank you Kent for continuing to push and explore. Glad to have you working on the assignment. Sorry so much time passed between feedback. Been a couple of crazy days. Actually, during harvest time here, every day is a bit crazy and time pressed! Doug
Kent - definitely like your ranked approach versus the new iterations. The bold, straight forward and consistent type treatment. What I liked about that version is that it sort of feels like something you would stamp on a crate, and that was cool. These feel like they are getting more complex - not simpler - there is too much going on - too many things competing for your eye.
Hey Kent! Thanks for working on the tongue a bit. That would have been my one improvement area for the design. As you might remember, we've been using happiness is golden as the tagline for our Golden Dog Farm endeavor. But we found people wanted to buy stuff that just had the Happiness is Golden line on it by itself. So we decided we would create a separate identity for the brand. This is going to go on t-shirts, hats, mugs etc. - often paired with other illustrations, sayings, etc. where this won't be primary (but to start, where it is the primary communication). Please give this a look in that light and let me know if you have any thoughts or areas to explore that would move the idea forward. Thanks!
Looks like Dewey. :-) Color choices feel a bit heavy for the feeling we want to convey. Like the illustration and medallion approach. Would love to see some different color selections if you have time. Thanks Kent!
Hi Kent! Nice to see you participating! Appreciate it. For this contest, definitely looking for a more approachable illustration style - less angles/edges and more rounded. Want the illustration to be a quick read as a golden retriever and, for lack of a better term, huggable. This approach is a bit too angular. Looking forward to what additional thoughts you might have here. Thank you again for being a part of this!
