Various shades of blue (dark and light, like pictured in URL below).
White.
Grey.
Black outlining where/as appropriate.
Logo needs to be crisp and clean. It will be used on many print and embrodiered items (hats, shirts, ect.), color gradients should be kept to minimum.

Please view "The Great Wave" (main wave portion of painiting) is of interest. Very much like the crisp outlining, colors and use of "fingers" defining the wave whitecaps. We keep envisioning a more traditional "barrel" wave in this type style.

Also, created a temporary logo we have been using to date for business plan purposes. We like the wave crashing through the circle border in some fashion and there is much appeal to having a simple and crisp design. The right style on this concept, would yeild a very brandable logo, see attached.

All ideas/interpretations welcomed. Please use your creativity, we want all creative ideas to come to light in addition to what we have included in this brief. We will consider all good ideas that are well conceived and well executed. We have given guidance based on what "we think" we will like, but are open to all ideas. We do not want to hinder designer's personal style or artistic interpretation. We will collaborate as requested in a timely fashion for feedback and ranking. Our thanks to all designers for giving your time, ideas and creativity for our project.
