Patterson's stunning original illustrations are the first time his work has appeared in print. He says some of the illustrations were influenced by his travel to Italy during the Pratt in Venice program.
Patterson graduated from the University of Delaware in 2014 with a BFA in Visual Communications. He is currently a Lead Designer at Conssol LLC, and a Designer for BLT Communications, LLC. He lives in Los Angeles.
Tanti auguri, Taylor!
