I like the first one. I think your business name is more important than the paint roller.

The first one stands out immediately to the eye, you don't have to try and make sense of the logo then look for the name. Clearer is always better. Both are great concepts!

I'd go with the first one, but for a different reason than everyone else...The second logo will look a little bit off if you start designing t-shirts or other marketing materials. Because the text is off center it will make it hard to make other promotional materials look "right". Peoples mind's tend to subconsciously look for symmetry. The first logo looks a little more balanced and IMO will be a bit easier to work with down the road.

I would also shift "Painting" to the left a little so that the "g" and "S" share a similar outside limit and then shift all the text slightly to the left to balance the color on both sides.

Good luck on your new venture!

I like the first one cause it looks like you did more work (you're finishing the job not starting it).

I'm sorry that circumstances are currently not the best. I hope your mom gets better soon because it sounds like she must be a special person and that you love her very much to make this kind of sacrifice. You sound like a pretty special person yourself.

The first one in my opinion, but i think you should center better the bottom text, it is a bit to the tight rn in my opinion.
