artist’s note
The students were really the creative directors. I merely helped come up with a format that would include their thoughts and would complement the existing school crest. They had such clear and inspiring vision and wanted to include snakes and sunflowers to represent their team. The final logo complements the existing school crest and features two intertwined snakes that mirror the double S letterforms in the school name.
