While I find this technique to be very interesting, I do not think I would use it to create my logo. I like the initial tracing of my photograph because it made everything look seamless and gave the image the look that I was going for. However, after expanding the image and trying to recolor it, things started to fall apart. I realized how different the image started looking when using purely solid colors to fill it in and no shades or tints to create shadows or highlights like in the original tracing. There were so many tiny, oddly shaped paths that it made recoloring the image difficult and produced more of a choppy, unblended result that I was not happy with. I went back to the original image a few times to see if playing with the paths, corners, etc. would help with that but I had no luck. Maybe practicing with the tool more will give me the result I am looking for, but based on this experience I do not think I would use this technique for my logo.
