about us

Carson Krause

Hello! My name is Carson Krause. I’m a graphic designer living in Minnesota and the main content creator for this website. I have been drawing and designing since I was 3 and I don’t plan on stopping any time soon. My bread and butter is brand identity design and the various identities such as Luxus, Whale Watch, Urban Treehouse, Prori, and Killer Bee seen on this blog were all some of my favorite projects I’ve partaken in. I hope to use this blog to spread awareness on the importance of a well-branded and well-designed world around us and continue to grow on my mission to innovate and evolve brand identity design as a profession and craft. 

Debbie krause

Hello, my name is Dr. Debbie Sommers-Krause and I am a mental health professional with over 30 years of experience. I have collaborated with my son Carson Krause for over 5 years creating and developing our blog which is expanding in exciting ways. I have a passion for the importance of self- care and wellness in our lives. Part of self-care includes getting in touch with our creative side. Throughout the years, I have used the creation of art to help my clients find new ways to escape, communicate, discover, grow, and shut down an inner critic that can be all too harsh at times. My mission is to help people take time for themselves and use that time in creative endeavors that improve mental health and well-being.
