Hello steemians, here is my first well detailed tutorial on logo design

In this tutorial we'll be using CorelDraw X7.

After folllowing this tutorial carefully your finished work would look like this

Let's begin

These are the shapes you'll need

STEP 1

For shape 1 draw a circle with the Ellipse tool
To draw: Click the ellipse tool navigate to the work space left-click and hold and draw to your desired size

Note that before the circle can be manipulated into different shapes it needs to be converted to shape this can be done by selecting the shape by using the pick tool and pressing CTRL + Q

STEP 2

Create two four nodes as shown in the sample below
To create node: Double click any point of the the circumference
