  • A few years ago, I was going through an intense Art Nouveau kick, brought on by the work of Alphonse Mucha. At one point in his career, he did a series of four paintings/prints based on each of the four seasons (Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter). / Inspired by this, I came up with my own versions of the seasons that I intended to (at some point) paint. After letting the sketches collect dust for what seemed like forever and never really getting any closer to painting them, I finally decided to convert them into digital illustrations (something I knew I could accomplish without too much of a headache). / “Winter” is the first of these.

  • An expecting fairy, art nouveau style :) I very much wanted to be able to use my own belly as a reference but since I have nothing close to the awesome round belly of the picture I used reference from AuroraDreams Stock Gallery

  • ...hide me from me…make time not an enemy… Inspired by Alphonse Mucha’s “Austrian Pavillion at the World Fair.” 1900 / Art Nouveau portrait of Alyz. From the photography of Lynn sk. Used with her permission. / http://www.lynnsk.com Coloured pencil and sharpie marker.

  • My dear friend Antoine had just returned from a tour of India and had brought me back a gift of a hookah. It was an exceptionally beautiful item, crafted of blown opalescent glass and gilt in fine designs accented with jewels. I was beside myself with delight – I had always secretly wanted one. I couldn’t wait to have this exotic item lounging casually on my coffee table. “Well, let’s try it out!” said Antoine, extracting a small velveteen pouch from his pocket. I gave up smoking some time ago and my hookah fantasies had never ventured much past the purely decorative, but I was feeling adventuresome. “Hey, how about some coffee to go with?” he suggested, indicating a special blend he had brought back as well. He busied himself with the hookah and I busied myself with the French press and we bubbled and sipped for some time thereafter out on the back porch, under the light of a very bright, full moon. I felt more than a little peculiar and concluded that Antoine’s tobacco blend must be especially strong. Eventually his jet lag kicked in and he regretfully called it a night and went home. I went back out on the porch and stared, wide-eyed, at the ponderous moon, recalling why I don’t ever drink coffee after 2:00 pm. I glanced at the offending cup and saw this very entity hovering about 2 inches above it, clutching a diminutive donut. I calmly closed my eyes, rubbed them very hard, took a deep breath and opened them again. She was still there. There was also a small lizard twining its tail around my teaspoon. I began to wonder just what the hell Antoine had me smoking. After taking a delicate bite out of her donut, she informed me that she was a Java Goddess, an ancient deity who had been trapped in the heart of the bean and released with the aroma of the brew. Also, her lizard’s name was Sumatra. “That’s nice” I said, slowly backing away, “You two make yourselves perfectly comfortable – help yourselves to anything you’d like. I have to go to bed now”. I made a mad dash for a bottle of Ambien and figured that I would realize I’d been dreaming in the morning. But of course, the next morning I found donut crumbs in a saucer and tiny lizard prints on my teaspoon. And that coffee? I have brewed a pot of it every morning for the past 2 years and I haven’t run out of it yet. The goddess hasn’t visited me again, but maybe she will visit you. Original measures 5” x 7” x ¾” and features vintage images, Thai lace paper, German Dresden trim and is accented by small sparkling crystals, a silver mask and a lovely piece of passementerie at the bottom.

  • This painting is a mixed media work that was “rescued”. I had started the original oil painting several years earlier but it had been set aside and forgotten about. Once I pulled it out again, I had no idea what my original vision for the piece was. After looking at it for awhile, I finished it off with the intricate ink work that surrounds the seashell. I also turned the shell into a stone fossil, which represents what happened to the idea I originally had for this painting – it turned to stone! But I think the end result was worth it.

  • tattoo design I did for my flash book

  • An image from the “Smokers” series. / This time in Art Nouveau style. I love that epoch… / Art Nouveau, also known as Jugendstil , is an international movement and style of art, architecture and applied art—especially the decorative arts—that peaked in popularity at the turn of the 20th century (1890–1905). A reaction to academic art of the 19th century, it is characterized by organic, especially floral and other plant-inspired motifs, as well as highly-stylized, flowing curvilinear forms. Art Nouveau is an approach to design according to which artists should work on everything from architecture to furniture, making art part of everyday life… Japanese wood-block prints, with their curved lines, patterned surfaces, contrasting voids, and flatness of visual plane, also inspired Art Nouveau. Some line and curve patterns became graphic clichés that were later found in works of artists from all parts of the world…

  • I wanted something absolutely Much/Art Nouveau. She is a goddess, a phoenix perhaps…lady bird. I had a photo ref. of a belly dancer and it fit so well in what I wanted for her pose. And I was looking through my Much book and saw his Work “Chansons d’aieules” and the wona had her wings coming from/off her arms. So I did the same with a bit of a Sulamith Wulfing feather inspiration. I was also somewhat inspired by Tammy: Moon Spiral I was looking through her gallery whan the initial inspiration hit. 9×12 / Ink.

  • My book (the Hobbit) / My rug (warm and fluffy) / Photograph of typed words – The Old Homestead by Paul Dunbar. / My lazy sunday. Panasonic Lumix DMC FZ5 Featured in “The Sisterhood” group. / Featured in “Your Living Spaces” group.

  • Bast is the Egyptian goddess with the body of a maiden and the head of a cat. She is the Goddess of cats, the rising sun as well as the moon, truth, enlightenment, sexuality and birth, fertility and the harvest, the home, music, dance and the arts, among many other attributes. She is also sometimes considered to be the Egyptian version of the Greek Artemis and Roman Diana. Halloween was originally celebrated as the Feast of Bast and Sekhmet. Sekhmet is Bast’s twin sister, who has a lion head. While Bast is associated with life, Sekhmet is associated with death and is the destroyer goddess). In this stylized, abstracted portrait, I portrayed Bast with a golden corona or solar disc to represent the rising sun and life. The triangles are a symbol of fertility as well as the creative power. Mixed Media (liquid copper leaf, gold acrylic, oil pastels, colored pencils, and black art marker) on tan Canson pastel paper. Original work measures 19×12.5 inches.

nouveau – information provided by wikipedia:

Art Nouveau ([aʁ nu vo], anglicised /ˈɑːt nuːvəu/) (French for 'new art') is an international style of art, architecture and design that peaked in popularity at the beginning of the 20th century (1880―1914) and is characterised by highly-stylised, flowing, curvilinear designs often incorporating floral and other plant-inspired motifs. The name 'Art Nouveau' derived from the name of a shop in Paris, Maison de l'Art Nouveau, at the time run by Siegfried Bing, that showcased objects that followed this approach to design.
