Rejected version of a logo for Russian source about beauty. The client had asked for something calligraphic and lively but in the end it was a lazy font like logo. But I love this version so decided to post it here. Just sketch made with a chisel tipped marker and tuned with a gel pen.

Really lovely style! Is this your handwriting?

The only think that is weird is the turquoise line below the "r", but that's probably just leftovers from the drawing process, I guess...

Thanks Miro! Yes, as I wrote it above it's a sketch, just scaned. So it's handwritten and I prefered not to move some details out from this pic even this blue line=)

Very nice, definitely calligraphic and lively. Sorry to hear about the final logo, but this is a wonderful sketch (the 'L' is brilliant).

Thank you Claire! To be honest L was very hard for me to make it harmonious with the rest letters=)

I think it works well with the stroke acting as an underline - it feels like it brings in the rest of the word (if that makes sense!) That is a very nice 'r' too, I don't find them the easiest to draw.

I guess capital L is difficult by it's inner space especially between two words=)

That's true, could have also made it taller so that its upper loop fitted above the other letters. The possibilities..! Regardless, very nice work as always.
