History of Delon’s Logo
I chose to use the ostrich feather to surround my logo because of the unique, non reproductive qualities it has. The ostrich feather symbolizes a uniqueness I wanted to grasp in my logo and my art.

Ostrich feathers are the most sought after material for the making feather dusters because of their unique ability to remain entirely static free.
