Hi Faith, This concept is still my favorite, but I would like the Brush Stroke effect found more in Baco's logo's (4 and 5). I like how you modified the brush making it stand out. Also, not sure if the logo will be green or red, it depends on the final colors I choose.
Yes, I am in Pasadena, born and raised here, but went to Franklin High in LA. I have many friends in your area. And, funny how close you are.
Best,
