I like the concept in #27 - definitely prefer it to #26 because of the use of colour.
I don't particularly like the typeface sued for 'Patrick Thomas' - hard to put a finger on exactly why it's not working for me, but I think it's to do with the low, wide character sizing.
Would be interested in variations on #27 with & without the circle inside the p/t graphic... possibly also a cleaner overall look to the graphical element
