Zen Logo
The Zen Fellowship of Dayton. It is a gather place (not sure if worship is the right word?) for Buddhists in Dayton Ohio. The client said it was perfect, while at the same time commenting on the ‘leftist’ look the logo has. He said it has a flavor of Russian propaganda art! “… The hyper-perfect grain, backed by the sun burst! Enlightenment for the workers! A bold new tomorrow!”
Who knew that I would eventually have a voice in the uprising of the spiritual proletariat?
yeh…try to explain ‘Zen’…my teacher says: ‘Talking about Zen is like dancing about architecture.’ (…which is why he is my teacher) ‘Worship’ does not apply and ‘for Buddhists’ is even a bit limiting. ‘A group of friends supporting each other in silent practice with a traditional Buddhist format’ is accurate but a hard sell.
Dave has done a remarkable job of reaching into my brain to get the core of what I asked of him. Much to my surprise…I asked for propaganda art!
I have checked it out as letterhead…I like very much, my bro.
