In case anyone missed it, there is a face in the trunk of the tree.

Yep. Just go. I spent almost 2 days jsut trying things and figuring out what I wanted to do. I ended up doing this after messign with at least 3 other ideas.
The hardest part for me was trying to figure out what aspect to use.

Name? Color? Eyes? Trees? Words? Etc.

you know in art, when i get to that point of trying to decide WM, it's usually best just to go with the first thing you look at...the first thing that pulls your attention in... know what i mean?

I agree. I wanted to use the word fallen but I really had no idea what to do. it was the most concrete idea I had but I still felt like I wanted to use a tree. After trying to fit the word fallen into something I finally just used the tree idea and went with that.

Then once I got moving, it just fell into place. Same idea with maps I have made. Sometimes just let the ink flow (so to speak) and it works out better than strategic planning.

it's your artistic nature telling you, "hey, stop, we know what we are doing"... lol.

I'm not convinced by what I've got together... I was hoping for something a bit more retro looking, but am going to run out of time...

very nice Benn - fun font and nice balance. The sideways W sort of looks awkward, but fits the fun theme.

Did you draw / create the tree?

very different.. you certainly pulled away from the overall eerie feeling of the earlier posters.
you've gone for a more 'fun' approach... i dig the color palette. :)
