I like your path of creativity - concerned it looks a bit like an intergalactic visual - but that speaks to its expansive nature - I suppose - very clean - thank you for submitting...

Hi, so you'll notice that you've landed in the top 5 - I am wondering if you're willing to keep working on the design and even be open to new inspiration that may come to you as we work through this.

Your design incorporates a bunch of important aspects of the Expedition Self but I'd like to see if we could create an even more "visually compelling" image.

First is the color... I'd really like something that uses lots of color - even in hairlines... so I like all shades of purple, most of blue, greens - harvest yellow, sienna orange, burgundy, and of course dark gray and black to ground the design...

The shadow is really great - love that -

The self development process is all about peeling layers, focusing on the internal self and going toward, inward to discover hidden information and relationships - so your compass or scope does that - but I'm wondering if there's a softer way to depict this

Perhaps if the person weren't quite so pointy - self development softens people, rounds out their edges, they become less angular and more integrated within themselves and with others...

So that's where I'd start... please let me know if you're willing to dialogue and experiment with me and this design... of course I'm open to any other suggestions that you may have... :) thank you for participating...

At clients - looking but won't be able to provide lots a feedback - better colors - wondering if the person could be the same on both sides - what were you thinking about it being different on the right

How about the compass lines like this - more hand drawn - showing it's your journey - your discovery.

I can make the line show up more like hand drawn. maybe thicker.

Just the ends not being quite so pointy - I think you can use person in the first design but just soften the edges - like the colors in 183 except for the color on the person - and we need to remove the periods from
The word SELF - - interesting color combo - love the yellow inset - maybe the person needs to be green - Aldo could you try stacked - illustration then expedition self ??? Thank you so much for continuing to work on this - hoping I have 3 great logos from which to choose :) thanks, Sam

I think this last version will appeal to potential clients. It speaks to what you do and is inviting.

Good morning, okay #189 is the one we're working - can you straighten the person out and make it smaller like the very first one - leave the rounded hands and feet - size it more like the first one - now that the corners are rounded - the size and dimension and straightness of the original person may work just fine... last thought - what happens if you make that person a lot more translucent...??? thank you for working again on it...

Hi. Just want to be sure you are really interested in any revisions to this or are you already decided with another logo. I just spend a lot of time on these and want to be sure you haven't already already chosen a winner. Know what I mean?

Yes, I do understand - no I haven't decided - in fact, I'm kind of dying to see what the new design looks like with a pared down "person" - so I do understand if you feel like you've given it enough time... for sure... but I'm trying to get to 3 solid "perfect" logo choices - the decision won't be about it not being a great logo but about how it will work to my market... and I won't feel like I know that until they have that polished look - you can see that I've settled on the design in the #1 position, still working on the design in the #2 position and was hoping to get yours to a place that would occur for me in the same way as the other 2... of course it's your call... and I appreciate your effort greatly already - thank you...
