I'm so excited to share with you that I was selected to be part of the UPPERCASE Magazine Surface Pattern Design Guide in January.  774 submissions were received and reviewed by UPPERCASE editor Janine Vangool. She selected 100 to be included in this issue. 

"The UPPERCASE Surface Pattern Design Guide Second Edition will be a special part of UPPERCASE magazine issue #32 (Jan/Feb/March 2017) that will feature the best in established and up-and-coming surface pattern designers."
