I really tried to capture your ideas of the phoenix rising from the fire, and the actually growing process etc. I have chosen a flame shape similar to the actual leaves of the coffee tree, and then repeated then on 2 sides of a yin-yang type symbol.
hey gadinga, i liked your idea and its creativity. what i like best is how you tried incorporating the coffee cherry branch. i've been looking at the entries and the phoenix doesn't seem to be coming out the way i'd like it to. i was wondering if you could try coming up with a logo based solely on my name or maybe one incorporating the coffee branch (Beginning of the process) with a coffee bean (end of the process) and who knows perhaps maybe a cup or something... also i was looking to have a little color in the logo. thanks for your effort! donny
