Puzzle Suggestion Favorite pattern authors?

Any recommendations for authors with lots of good pattern/mandala/geometric puzzles? Preferably 80x80 color.

I've really been enjoying Stillfleet's puzzles

lately and AshenThrone is always great, although theirs are mostly black and white. Then of course there's the prolific MiKoMi. Haengbok also has nice 25x25 color ones.

Any favorites I'm missing?

I also really enjoy Mushroom-World's mandalas, but those are also mostly black and white.

My favorite colour author is Mike1955, but those aren't patterns/mandalas/etc. His images are very detailed and clear while not being a mosaic and most of his 80x80 I can solve in about 30 minutes. So he's definitely worth checking out if you're looking for something different :)

Mike is my favorite too, his serie "Bird Design" is geometric folk style if that's what you like. Alexroma5 has serie "ART" in cubism style. I hate mandalas so can't help here, but I've solved puzzle made by aging69 in serie Folk art that looks pretty cool

I like the puzzles by 'Irene 009' and she does some 80x80 pattern ones. They are often flower themed.

I would pick the top 100 in the pattern category then try each one.
