As a lover of all things retro and vintage (well, I shouldn't say all), it's completely natural that I have fallen for Christopher Nielsen's illustrations. Although I'm still young and never lived in the era that these pieces hark back to, I m still overcome with a sense of nostalgia when I look at them.
Part of his 'Editorial' portfolio, Christopher Nielsen's work is clever, cute and communicative (the 'Three C's,' which I just made up).
