Making A Japanese Zen Style Logo – YouTube

This is a progression of trying to make a new logo for this channel that better represents the videos and projects. The inspiration is from asian wall scrolls. I tried to incorporate similar positions of text that you see in these scrolls. There were two elements I wanted to incorporate, the whaleback saw and an ensō. In Zen, ensō (円相 , “circle”) is a circle that is hand-drawn in one or two uninhibited brushstrokes to express a moment when the mind is free to let the body create.
