I’m a designer and illustrator from Denver, CO.

This was done as an experiment. </p> <p>The basic idea was to take the horn that is so popular in the athletic department and allow it to become a bold mark. It also happens to be the same shape as the letter ‘c’. </p> <p>I’m hoping to refine in my free time – still needs a lot of work.</p>http://cnlsn.tumblr.com/post/22072267467http://cnlsn.tumblr.com/post/22072267467Sun, 29 Apr 2012 16:30:00 -0400<iframe width="400" height="225" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/N0GZZUsOlKE?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/><p>Nice and short process video from Target.</p>http://cnlsn.tumblr.com/post/21269070932http://cnlsn.tumblr.com/post/21269070932Tue, 17 Apr 2012 10:59:11 -0400<p>With the ever changing landscape in design, I&#8217;ve learned there are areas where I think I know a lot. Areas that I do know a lot, and many areas that are unknown. This year I really have no goals other than to listen more. Also, I hope to read more since my folks got me a nook for Christmas.</p> <p>I leave with this quote from Charles Eames:</p> <p>&#8220;<span>Eventually everything connects—people, ideas, objects…the quality of the connections is the key to quality per se.”</span></p>http://cnlsn.tumblr.com/post/15131316573http://cnlsn.tumblr.com/post/15131316573Sun, 01 Jan 2012 12:40:21 -0500<iframe width="400" height="225" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/QtACFxr062Y?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/><p>Everything about this video is true – I know, I lived there.</p>http://cnlsn.tumblr.com/post/14989698573http://cnlsn.tumblr.com/post/14989698573Thu, 29 Dec 2011 17:34:17 -0500<iframe width="400" height="225" src="http://www.youtube.com/embed/bb6cBKE3WzQ?wmode=transparent&autohide=1&egm=0&hd=1&iv_load_policy=3&modestbranding=1&rel=0&showinfo=0&showsearch=0" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe><br/><br/><p>Fitz and the Tantrums – MoneyGrabber.

Even the house we were staying in had examples of Dutch design. On a bike ride I made a stop at the<span>Rietveld Schröder house with a friend and an in-law. I have no other pictures of the house, other than the exterior. The interior is completely closed to the public, and worth the visit if you’re near the area.</span></p>http://cnlsn.tumblr.com/post/11793510985http://cnlsn.tumblr.com/post/11793510985Sat, 22 Oct 2011 19:21:53 -0400<img src="http://25.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_lthayqwism1r5psbbo1_r1_500.jpg"/><br/><br/><p>Recently I have re-vamped my identity to fit my name. It’s made from my initials to created a ‘branded’ mark.
