Cassidy Demkov

“Want to know something extra exciting about Issue 49 of UPPERCASE magazine? Out of over 800 entries I’ll be one of 100 surface pattern designers featured in it!I decided to submit very last minute. In the middle of a project I took a break and gathered up a few of my patterns that best represented my work and hit submit. I figured it was probably a long shot with so many submissions but it never hurts to try. Nothing will happen if you don’t try, right? That’s my life motto lately, I’ve had a very “might as well go for it” attitude which has me going so many directions at once but I figure I won’t know if I can do it unless I just go for it.

Cassidy was featured in Uppercase Magazine’s All About You!“UPPERCASE publishes beautiful and inspiring books and a quarterly magazine about craft, design and visual art.”

Hello, I am a surface designer and illustrator from Salt Lake City, Utah. I have a passion for gardening and nature, which is where I feel most inspired. I love travelling and bringing home inspiration for new patterns and projects from my trips. I previously worked in the Interior Design industry but always had a passion for patterns and interior textiles. I currently have a small card line and love working with brands to create unique patterns, mostly for textiles such as dog bandanas, clothing and fabric. I hope to move more into the home decor, wallpaper and interior textiles industry which is where my original passion for pattern & design began.”

Dogs and flowers, my two favorite things. Put them together and you’ve got the cutest Spring launch from @thefoggydog. My Perennial Bouquet pattern on their bandana, might be my favorite one yet.Launching next week.

“Exciting to see one of my patterns on one of my first non-fabric or paper products. Loved getting these Lemon Zest candles in the mail. More products with this pattern are on their way.”

“It’s been a while since I’ve had some time to work on a personal project… Ever since the inauguration I’ve wanted to letter these two sections from The Hill We Climb by @amandascgorman.I’ve seen a lot of people focus on the very last section of the poem (second image) but I really loved this part about how we can make love become our legacy (first image). Thank you, Amanda, for sharing your talent!”

“Getting back to the sketchbook. I successfully filled my whole sketchbook from last year and plan to do the same with my new one. Getting back to your own style is always so refreshing after finishing commissions. There will soon be prints available. I’ve also ordered this drawing as a canvas print that I will add gold leaf to.”

Please sign up to participate in a super fun virtual event and to support a really great cause. You will have a blast!” 🎨🎨🎨



Dianna Totland

“Haven’t painted in a really long time. I’ve had this blank canvas for over 2 years because I have a fear of ruining a perfect blank board/page/any medium. Therefore I tend to never do anything. Sad really. I’ve already assumed I failed. What is wrong with me? I know I’m not alone in this. Anyways, I’m pretty happy with how she turned out. I know there was more I could do better for next time. I’m just happy I finally got around to painting this empty canvas I’ve held onto, and with something I am happy with. Thanks. P.S. if anyone wants to teach me how to oil paint, I think this style would look awesome in oil.”



Missy Van Wagoner

“The little lady, Amanda Gorman stole the show! She is goals! I loved her words (a long with Pres. Biden’s) and was memorized by her hands. I’m excited to follow and see what this lil lady does in her lifetime. Holy cow. Amazing!”

Keith Beard

“Sometimes our fears are not as bad as we think they are. Just big opportunities waiting to show their power in helping us grow as a person. Growth can be learning to be kind to the things that scare you. Be kind in a world that seems scary.”


Melanie Bunch

“I just completed the first draft of the cover design for this year’s Product Guide (catalog) for my company. My new design is on the right, compared to their previous design on the left. I feel like mine is an improvement.”

Here is an example of the inside of the Product Guide I am creating at my job. The top one is their previous design, the bottom one is my update. The empty swatches on my version are due to new fabrics that haven’t arrived yet to be photographed.

So far, they seem to be pretty happy with the new design!”

“Just finished the shirt design for this year’s Burning Phoenix TKD Camp! Which will be much less “in tents” than usual….

I’m super happy about the design of this shirt, it is one of the prettiest shirts I’ve ever made. Like all of our Summer Camp shirts, it glows in the dark – see below for how it looks in daylight, and in the dark!

And if you haven’t seen the post on the Burning Phoenix School Page, you should go read it! But also, you can order your shirt here:

“So interesting news! You all remember a few days ago I announced that my latest painting “A Song For The Forest” was accepted into the Eccles 46th statewide art competition. Turns out, that painting was not accepted. But it’s okay! Because my other entry “Ethereal” was accepted! The art center just got the names of my painting swapped 😂 but I got to go see my painting hanging and lots of other amazing pieces of art tonight!”


Bri Petrilla

“This is a logo and updated brand guidelines I made for a local photographer. She wanted her logo to be simple and clean, and also tie in with topography and exploration so the lines in the logo represent a topographical map.”

“Shop the Hope Collection today and 100% of the proceeds will be donated to @ourrescue in the fight to end #humantrafficking for #worlddayagainsttrafficking

Human trafficking happens all over the world, and in every state.
There are 30 million people currently in slavery, with approximately 10 million of those being children 💔

@ourrescue just rescued their 4,000th survivor, which is so amazing! But there are so many more out there that are desperate for freedom.

So visit @ourrescue to learn more about their rescue efforts and aftercare programs, and how they assist law enforcement in taking down the rings that have harmed so many people.” 💙

I got to help redefine the direction of the brand with logo design and a restructuring of the online store – in the next few days I’ll be sharing more assets that I have created! Enjoy this little beaut of a logo.”

“My favorite part about working with Belle et Noir Boutique was creating and updating the UI to be something that was refreshing and simplistic + adding a little stylish flair. Shopping with them is now even better using your phone!”

#UIdesign #websitedesign #branding #graphicdesign

“Fresh off the block, the new Belle et Noir Boutique website! The key focal points that make the site shine is the photography and the polished, clean, sans-serif typography.

The goal was to create a brand vision, a personality that shoppers could get behind – and lay the foundation for the branding to grow and evolve into a recognized name brand clothing and product line.”

“4 recent drawings I’ve done that look pretty cool together.”


Helen Cox

“It has been an honor to spend the last week reflecting on some of my black heroes and sharing their messages and faces. Due to Covid and caring for my family, I cannot risk going to protests. However, it was not an option for me to not contribute to this movement in some way, so I decided to do what I do: create.

I hope these have given some meaning to someone out there. I am considering making some prints and donating the profits to the Black Lives Matter Global Network. If anyone is interested in something like that, please let me know. If not, feel free to save these digital copies. I also have PDF files for anyone who would prefer to print at home: bit.ly/helenalux-black-heroes. Much love to everyone right now during this crazy but important time in human history.”

“I needed to take a small break from painting this week. While looking through some old photos, I found this picture of Hudson and I in the Japanese Tea Gardens in San Francisco a couple years back. It’s been a cherished memory. We had such happy expressions on our faces I chose to recreate the picture in my sketchbook with some of my Art Nouveau touches.”

“June marks my third anniversary at @americancrafts . I haven’t used this space much to curate my 9-5 work, but I think I’d like to change that…

Let’s kick things off with some dinos, shall we? A couple weeks ago I finished reading Jurassic Park by Michael Crichton. Then over the weekend a friend rented out a theater to have a viewing of the original JP film. Seeing it larger than life was something else… 🤩 So I’m commemorating the occasion by sharing some of the dinosaurs I contributed to a @shimelle paper collection called Field Trip. They all look pretty friendly – just don’t get too close.” 🦕🏝🌋🦖
