One of the initial designs I worked on for my logo was the octopus mountain monogram idea. I went through a lot of experimentation with this idea, and also learned more about how to use Adobe Illustrator while I was at it.
Although I ultimately did not choose this idea, the process was educational.
I played around with rough design.

And then I experimented with colour:

When I took it into Illustrator, my first attempts were awful.

But it did get better. For the curved part, instead of just using the shapes or pen tools, I used typography. I grabbed a letter S, turned it into a shape, and modified it.
