Dear zhafran:
We really like #9, with one small exception: Is it possible to make the bottom hand look as if it is grasping the top hand. Now, it sort of looks like the top hand (coming from the right) is pulling the left hand rather than shaking or holding it in solidarity (which is, of course, what we want to express).
We like the images of the women and children and that there is a sense of protection (the hands) and of hopefulness (the images of the women and children).
I am trying to communicate with the Program Coordinator of the PEWC program, who is out of touch for a few days in New Zealand. If we agree before the end of the deadline today to accept this logo, can we continue to adapt a little in the next few days so her feedback can be included?
Thanks,
Rick
