gyui said:i like it. i like the separation of the kids from the type because the white space between the kids hints at the white brush bristles. but logomotive's thoughts could work too:) either way I like it a lot.

gtbernstein said:Tried it with just the heads and arms and it didn't get that nice look of the bristles of the paint brush. That's why we ended up using the whole bodies.

joebarondesign said:i think this is a very well done logo. The concept and design is on point. I think even if you were able to fit the hands and heads only, it wouldn't be as effective as the whole bodies.

Unit B said:Great concept AND execution. Maybe you'll be able to resurrect it for someone who does "dig it." Hey, maybe they just didn't like red paint! Not sure if I can say this on the post since I'm brand new here (get it, "brand" new?), but the client may just be a putz.

jdizon said:Nice! I think changing the all red color of the painted children to a rainbow of colors
might be something to toy around with.. The red reminds me of blood.

hipcheck said:this is among my fave logos on the site... my only tiny issue is that when it's not full-size, you can't tell that the people are kids. aside from that, I love the white space and all the touches

bnpelsoh said:As one of the client decision makers, it's important to note there were several other directions and we choose the one we felt was strongest.
We felt the paint brush represented house painting not art and, as can be seen above, it doesn't work well small.
You can see the logo we chose on our website www.mam.org

Relevant said:The one you chose represents kids, but I'm not sure I'm seeing art in that one either. Looks nice though.

logomotive said:@ bnpelsoh, I can really buy your point after seeing this was for "kids" but I also agree with Relevant in the fact that the current logo does not convey the "art" message either. Perhaps this one could have been done with more of a artbrush rather than a paint brush. Good logo regardless.

logomotive said:I like the concept, have you tried welding the bottom part together? I think if you have just the heads and arms that would be enough. and a nice clean bottom line to form the brush. Just my 2 cents.
