Design a Logo for The Life Ministries

  • Status: Closed
  • Prize: $220
  • Entries Received: 84
  • Winner: ZenoDesign

Contest Brief

The winner of the contest will design a logo with at least these features:
a.) a bundle of wheat (representing the Bread of Life) that is shaped in such a way that makes it also look like a tree (representing Tree of Life)
b.) like one of the attached photos I prefer the tree to "look" gargantuan
c.) like one of the attached photos I would like the sun to shine through the tree in the shape of a cross; with the sun shining through the tree it almost makes this image want to be a silhouette but I would like the option of color
d.) like one of the attached photos I would like a pleasantly gnarly tree with large oversized branches (not a spooky kind of gnarly)
e.) somehow stylishly incorporate the words " The Life Ministries" into the logo
f.) needs to be transparent and ultra high resolution
Optional but encouraged features:
a.) subtly incorporate the grain in the stalks of wheat to also be the fruit on the tree
Will possibly update this description as the Lord leads.Thanks so much for your efforts.

    HI. I have added photos of the kind of cross I'm looking for as well as certain types of lens flare for effect that I like. Most are making something like a star instead of a cross. I don't want the lens effect to be to harsh though. I'm not looking for a hole in the tree truck in the shape of a cross I'm looking for Light coming through the branches in a lens flare fashion that has a bottom steamer longer than the other side like a cross.

    Hi. Please note that I have updated my project description slightly to remove some of the optional features and add a better description of the cross. Also I have added two photos of bundles of wheat to give an idea of what I'm talking about when I say a tree lie a bundle of wheat. You can see the stalks how they can easily form the trunk of the tree but the heads of wheat willl be a tad more difficult to incorporate a Tree like feel to it with of course the light coming through the branches like a cross. Feel free to ask before you attempt if you need clarification or would like to ask a question

    Just letting everyone know that the star rating I'm rating these drawings at has absolutely nothing to do with quality or how much I like it. it has everything to do with how close it comes to the image I have of this logo in my mind. Also maybe this will help: I explained to someone that I want the cross to be almost like a lens flare that happens when snapping pictures with a camera similar to one of the attached photos. I really don't want a hole in the tree in the shape of a cross but an almost accidental shape of a cross through the branches. Thanks guys I know you're trying.

      Thanks for the suggestion and entries. The only reason why I don't guarantee this contest is because this isn't just a simple logo (obviously!) And I don't want to get stuck with something that's not what I see in my head. Your entries though don't meet the requirements. The cross for one is supposed to look like the normal Christian cross. Also is seems a bit simplistic for the description I gave. the gold one is the best but doesn't really seem to be a bundle. I'm almost looking for something that you can't really definitively discern a tree from the bushel or bundle of wheat almost like an illusion. when I have time off work this weekend hopefully I'll upload my rough sketch of what I want. I'm no artist which is why I'm hiring one but maybe I'll get better results if you can "see" what I see. these really aren't bad for first drafts though. again thanks for the entries
