Ocala, Florida Friesian breeder wanted a Friesian logo to depict the power and presence of the breed

For 35 years, Marchelle Valenchi has successfully bred the finest Andalusians and Lusitanos from Spain and Portugal, right here in the United States. Over time, she downsized her once massive breeding operation to focus on only the highest quality stock that could be produced. After many years in the Andalusian and Lusitano world, she decided to bring her expertise and eye for selecting and breeding quality baroque horses into the Friesian industry by becoming a Friesian Breeder, which is uncommon in Ocala, Florida.

Discovering a Love for Friesians

Marchelle says “there are few things in this world that are more majestic than a pure black Friesian horse in motion”. Their beauty combined with intelligence and loyalty are a few of the characteristics that drew her to the breed. Her Friesian breeding program is dedicated to preserving the history of the Netherlands, at her Ocala, Florida Friesian farm where horse enthusiasts from the United States can access the highest quality Friesian horses.

The inspiration for this Friesian Breeder logo design began with a brainstorming session

During our first call with Regal Legacy Friesians founder, Marchelle Valenchi, we asked her to elaborate on why she chose to breed Friesians over other breeds. She described what beautiful and majestic horses they were, how much she loved their fire and arrogance when they would trot through the pastures tossing their beautiful manes. This was the ‘feel’ she hoped we could convey in her logo.

The creation of Regal Legacy Farm’s Friesian Breeder Logo Design

Luckily we’re very familiar with Friesians, we’ve actually owned a number of them throughout the years. Many of the same things that Marchelle loves about the Friesian Horse breed are the same things that have drawn us to love the breed as well. We chose an angle where the Friesian was trotting away, just as if seconds earlier he ran up to the fence tossing his mane and then strutted off with that ‘look at me’ attitude the breed is known for.

We wanted to show feather in the line-art, but not too much so it kept the sleek lines. We also wanted tippy ears and remembered one of our favorite stallions, Lolke 371, who in our opinion, sported the best ears of any Friesian. The mane was kept long, as was the tail, but not so long that the logo felt overdone in any way. This logo, like many we create, is a first draft – we are oftentimes so very picky that the first drawing is exactly what clients like our Friesian breeders are looking for and this logo was no exception.
