BCC Diamond Jubilee Logo Unveiled
BCC Secretary Claire Bowden has provided the following notes on the artist who created the recently unveiled logo designed exclusively for this year's Diamond Jubilee celebrations...
"Chet Jezierski is a world renowned American artist and illustrator. Among his illustration credits are the American Bearded Collie Illustrated Breed Standard and, closer to home, Suzanne Moorhouse's book 'Little Dog Lost'. He has produced a number of pictures of Bearded Collies some of which feature Beardies that have been exported from here in the UK to the USA. Some of his portfolio can be seen on his website and I am sure you will be impressed by the quality of his work.
For a number of years he has designed the logo for the Bearded Collie Club of America's annual dog show, The National Speciality. It was from attending these shows that I had the idea to ask him to design a logo for our Club's celebrations.
Our exclusively designed logo will be used throughout the Jubilee year. I have worked closely with Chet and his wife Michele Ritter (Britannia Beardies) in adapting the logo to feature on various items that are available for people to purchase through the Bearded Collie Club.
I truly hope that you all love the logo and will find a souvenir or two from the products that we have to offer, and join us in celebrating our Club's Diamond Jubilee."
