Art Nouveau


"And heres your first assignment, produce an original piece of art in the style of... Art Nouveau"

This is the first of 9 assignments for a Design History class.  Each week we study a different style of Graphic Design, and then have to create an original piece in that particular style.

Coming from a time when Europe was run on a steady stream of Absinthe, Art, Burlesque, Poetry and Naughty Salt, this assignment was a lot of fun to do.  I drew inspiration from Alphonse Mucha, the film The Bright Young Things, and watching Moulin Rouge while listening to Marilyn Manson's The Golden Age of Grotesque.1 down, 8 to go
