Logo Variations





The thistle is a metaphor for human relationships.
When found in nature, the thistle rises tall and strikes a stark contrast. At once alluring and guarded, it reminds us of the importance of being true to ourselves while remembering that we are strengthened through connection and recognizable by our unique gifts.

Business cards and pamphlets emphasize the calm, calligraphic nature of the marks partnered with the tagline "Creative Peacemaker."
