My career as a surface designer started when my use of silkscreen as an art medium coincided with the
Pattern and Decoration art movement. Back then, I had NO IDEA I'd be designing underwear prints 30 years later!
These are the oldest examples of my silkscreen work that I could find in the house. (There are older ones out in the garage but they're extremely buried. Until I get an intern, I can't get to them. Harhar). They are from the "1st Series" set. Hmmm, maybe they ARE the first of this patterny-type genre.

also rotated it
this is my current color crush: lt blue/royal/red
doesn't quite make it
looks like a flag |
I'm going to stay with the original colors and make it patchworky with a grid of patterned boxes. Stay tuned!
