Book Overview

Art Nouveau Designs was created by designer Judy Balchin and published by Search Press. The book draws on a period that developed in the 1880s and lasted in its purest form for about a decade. Artists of the movement were inspired mainly by nature, producing stylized, flowing lines over different surfaces.

This collection is aimed at glass painters, silk painters, ceramic painters, needleworkers, and decorative painters. The designs can be used in their complete form, or elements can be lifted and combined to create new patterns. Readers are also invited to use the designs as a launching pad for their own ideas.
