do you have a link to anything art nouveau, so i can see what it is?

dreamerkins, Go to Art.com. type in Art Nouveau in the search box. It will bring up about 1400 items. Sami E

Heres a link to a wikipedia article: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Art_nouveau. Also, if you go to the art section of your local library or bookstore I'm sure you'd find some great books to flip though.

Thanks so much for your answers SamiE and Scarlett. That was the same thing I wanted to know Dreamerkins. I like swapbot because I am continually challenged to learn new things, like art nouveau.

I am dropping this swap because I am afraid I have signed up for too many of them and this seems more complicated. I do not want to do second rate work for anybody. Sorry, maybe next time.

Art Nouveau is quite possibly my very favorite artistic style! Some of my very favorite artists were from the Art Nouveau period: Alphonse Mucha Maxfield Parrish Aubrey Beardsley Victor Horta (architect) Hector Guimard (architect) Antoni Gaudi (architect) Eugène Grasset Louis Comfort Tiffany (best known for his stained glass)

If you do a google image search for any of the above names, you'll get some really great inspiration for your Art Nouveau creations!

Same comment, better punctuation. (I keep expecting line-breaks to work properly and they don't!)
