Logo Icon 2


The black and white one is my final sketches. Not sure if anyone notices the little L shaped petal in the middle. I was recently reading way too much Ouke no Monshou (not sure if i spelled it right) which led me to try making a Lotus flower logo-icon.

Out of curiosity I looked up the meaning behind the lotus flower. Here's what I basically remembered from my very brief research:

Lotus = purity, death, and rebirth.

The pink lotus on the left is the reference picture I used to help me make the left side of my flower petals which I then reflected on the right side. 

My reasoning behind the flower as a logo-icon is the symbolism of purity. Mostly 'cause a certain uncle's church says Graphic Design is impure and your selling your soul to the devil or something. I strongly disagree with that theory.

    Of the two that you have up this one is the most interesting to me. Nice work on the lotus. The little "L" shape petal gets lost. At first glance it looks like a water droplet in the middle of the lotus flower. But still a good design idea.
