This design project was so much fun for me. While I tediously made sure that all lines were straight and there were as little bleeds from my sharpie as possible, I came up with this finished product!
I chose this design for many reasons. First, I really like how I fit in all 3 of my initials. Second, I really feel that this is fairly original. While I know there are almost infinite possibilities on combinations with the letters "ekk" - I feel like if someone shared those same initials, no one else would have that logo....hopefully. I also just love how that backwards/upside down "k" gives another dimension to what seems like such a simple placement. I just love it! While I did too like the second one (the k with the upside down e), it was pointed out to me that if I shaded the letters in, it would just look like a giant "R".
Anyway, needless to say, I chose the first one. I straightened out the "e" to make it look a little more clean, and shaded everything in. While I didn't play around with combining the use of positive and negative space (in the sense that I didn't go against the norm), I am still very pleased with the final product, and would not do anything differently.
This has definitely made me appreciate the time and precision it takes to create a font style like this!

P.S.
I apologize for the crookedness of the picture - I clearly inaccurately measured the straightness of the paper, when putting it into the scanner - whoops!...Im sure you get the picture though :D
