OmnipixLogo Design Contest

Great start guys and very much appreciated. A background with us in that we are merging 2 businesses into one banner. Carmen is a a Reiki/Massage therapist and candle maker, https://www.facebook.com/omkaracandles/?fref=ts
Cindy is a photographer/composite artist
https://www.facebook.com/Cleverpixels/?fref=ts

So combining both our names Omkara and Cleverpix
We want to steer away from the traditional symbology and design normally associated with this industry.
We are about fun, healing, kindness and creativity for total well being.
Really looking forward to what you very talented people can come up with, because this is a great start. Thank you

The character upright and walking is also an option :)

There have been some great submissions from you all. We have really liked the child/monk ideas coming through and want to continue exploring that avenue. He can be a bit fun with glasses?sunglasses, upright and not necessarily sitting. We are about living life to the fullest and enjoying every part of it. So this character should be cute and fun whilst displaying some kind of creativity. Loving the submissions so far and thank you to all for the efforts, they really are appreciated

You are all producing some great designs and it is getting really hard to pinpoint what we do and dont like. We are really enjoying the process with you all. I think what I havent asked for and what may help is a connection between the character and the Name. The characters are great, but maybe we could look at a bit more of a merge of the entire design as a whole. I hope that helps you. Keep up the great work guys, we appreciate every one of you and the excellent job you are all doing.
