Honest John Logo

This is a logo that the band 'Honest John' uses for merchandising. The image itself is a good practice tool when using Adobe Illustrator. The lines are very solid, its easy to read and understand what the image actually is. I hope that this image turns out as easy as it looks, but at the same time, I wish to fully understand the 'pen tool' in this application so I can better appreciate the program and it's endless uses.
The apple core and the name 'Honest John' are both thought of after watching Disney's Pinocchio, when the fox (Foul-fellow) tricks Pinocchio into pursuing the theater instead of going to school. As this sly villain talks this poor puppet into his little scheme, he eats Pinocchio's apple, which was intended for his teacher. The apple core, therefor represents the death of something that is necessary in a society. Hence, quitting school in order to go into the theatre or any other alternate profession.
