Really fun to look at. I'm writing down artists I want to learn more about. I enjoyed trying to copy a few for a creative exercise. Seems like it would be a very specific art style, but there is a lot of different ways to create or interpret geometric patterns. I know I'll be looking at this over and over.

So far my favorite pattern design book. I will never finish reading this book. I always come back to find some inspiration. I love the variation offered in this book; the media, color palettes, and styles. My fave designers in this book include (but not limited to) Yao Cheng, Vasare Nar, Ana Montiel, Wendy Kendall, and many more. I wrote a more comprehensive review (and sneak peek of the book) in my blog. Click HERE.
