Ok, so I've been critiquing people the last couple of days, so I figure it's about time I open myself up to a little criticism. Here's a logo I designed recently for a small fine art gallery. I was standing in line at Kinkos the day after I moved here and overheard this woman asking the salesperson if they designed signs or just printed them (the answer, of course, was "no"). So I went over to her as she was walking away and gave her my card and got the job when she called the next day. :) (small city though, so not much $ in it, $150 and lots of champagne at her opening)

Anyway, as I said, it's a small fine art gallery with a modern, French feel. The client wanted something really simple, b&w, mostly just the name of the gallery, and needed it in less than a week. So here it is; I'd love to hear what you think.

How is this going to fit into a business card? It's pretty good, but simple also.

Doesn't look like a logo to me more like a sign.

Oops, sorry, I should have explained. This was the sign for the building, and she's using the inverted image as her logo. Also, she specified a square design.

I had to see it for myself. Ok, not too bad. It does look like a fancy art gallery logo so good job.

i think it is nice... I would have used a different font for the word 'gallery'..make it a little mo fancy smancy..the text looks a little squished to me....great job for the time frame, and good $$$ . I like the story about how you got the job...I do that all the time:p... "say , I do logo design and make signs n such, ..." :)

I would put 'Gallery' closer to the name and then center the text. Right now, it's almost like Gallery is a word that 'wants to be alone.' :p

Was the sign done as a wireframe?

Your design would look very nice applied in such way.
