Sunny C. RealtyLogo Design Contest

More modern, please. More refined. Sleek. Clean lines. etc
Should read well and stand out as a yard sign

My style / inspiration comes from the area I work, play & live in - Austin, TX.
Places I frequent tell the story of who I am as a person. I'm trying to brand myself and have my business be a reflection of who I am as a person.
My name is Sunny, I'm outdoorsy, I'm a yoga student, a swimmer, I'm spiritual, environmentally conscious, positive, bright, attentive, thoughtful, intentional, goofy, nerdy.
Local inspiration:

There's a line where vintage meets modern, where raw & earthy meets sleek. Architectural style that reflects the majority of my clients:

I hope this helps.
So far, I'm not crazy about having a ton of stark black. That said, I'm really open, just not seeing a style or direction yet that really matches my personality. Thank you all for your submissions!!

I'd like to have a colorful, vibrant pictorial logo, but not obnoxious - 3 colors at the most.
I'm interested in seeing variations that include a sun. Also, please explore fonts. I use Optima quite often but again, I'm very open to new styles and like plenty others. Thank you!

Please don't feel boxed in, I'm just going to throw some colors out there for fun.

Please avoid writing the text Sunny C. Realty in a way where "Realty" looks like my last name.
My last name is not Realty.

Thanks for you imput APE, feedback is welcomed! I'd also like to see logos that would work on a colorful background / real estate yard sign - instead of having to use a white background - See attached "Colorful Background" for inspiration. Thank you.
