About the book >.>.> BEGAN WORKING as an illustrator and graphic designer with a great interest in textiles. I have always loved patterns and even in my earliest jobs I often chose a kind of “pattern solution.” My ideas usually came more easily once I thought of the motif as a part of a pattern. That it wasn’t a centered motif- that what was going on around the edges was just as important as what was in the middle. That it doesn’t level off at the edges but rather continues (even if you don’t show the continuation). This way of working gives a special energy and a more easygoing expression. What I particularly like about patterns is that they can be like an aerial photograph over a community. Houses in all directions. Farms. It can be like a graph statistics. They can be like a shopping mall in the suburbs. In the pattern on the next spread the red center in the light pink flower is the library. The yellow and red flowers and the rings in different colors are other stores in the mall. The black background represents the people. Alongside it is the next suburb. It is the next recurrence of the pattern. When I start thinking like this it really puts me in a good mood. What’s most exciting is when there is a message in the pattern (MP)
