Blu Lotus Pathways Logo Project

Hi All,

It's been quite a week and I'm ready for the weekend.  Saturday is the holistic fair at work where I'm going to be offering 20 minute, Stress Relieving Hypnosis sessions.  Sunday - the Super Bowl.  I'm going to be making a big pot of chili and we'll be having the kids and some of their friends over for the game.  It's going to be fun.

Today I want to spotlight a logo that I developed for and with a friend, Tiff Vacca.  The logo is for her business, Blu Lotus Pathways.  Over the last few years I've had the privilege to work on some projects for some friends that I've gone to school with and this is one of those projects.

When Tiff and I originally sat down to discuss this project, she already had the name of her business. The lotus and the path (pathways), were very important symbolic images that needed to be represented in this logo.

Logo - Blu Lotus Pathways
So I got to work.  An idea that Tiff really liked was the blue lotus flower coming out of the U in Blu and a pathway also emerging from that U.  I found this concept to be a challenge and began putting ideas on paper with pencil.  It took a little back and forth with ideas, but we eventually came to the concept that would become the finished logo.  In the mean time, I had started working on the lotus flower, illustrating it in Photoshop.

Above is the finished artwork.  The symbolism of the lotus and the path have a very deep personal symbolism for my friend and client.  I felt that bringing it together in a circular (technically oval), shape follows the symbolism and brings it all around, "full circle."

Sunset in Cave Creek, Arizona....beautiful.


I'm proud and honored to have been able to help out with this logo.  You'll find Tiff and Blu Lotus up in Cave Creek, Arizona.  She's an outstanding massage therapist and also offers Reiki, Cranial Sacral therapy, and more.  If you're in Cave Creek, check out Blu Lotus or on Facebook at www.facebook.com/blulotuspathways

Have a great weekend everyone.  Enjoy the Super Bowl, or like some folks...the Super Bowl commercials.  Be good to each other too.

Peace,

Tom
