Synopsis

A beautiful, original collection of 100 Art Nouveau flowers specially commissioned for all artists and crafters to use in their own projects. The graceful, flowing lines of these floral designs offer inspiration for many different interpretations, whether in stitch, mixed media, paint, cardmaking, collage or whatever you are working on. Exquisite roses, poppies, lilies, sunflowers, daffodils and many more wild, exotic and garden flowers are perfectly formed in stunning stylised designs as borders, patterns, symmetrical and single pictures, and smaller motifs. A CD accompanies the book, so designs can be combined with other images, reduced, or enlarged to be used as a main theme for a special piece of work. If you are thinking of new projects and do not know where to start, look no further. This source book is packed with inspiration and ideas and will give you all the help you need to create unique works of art.
