A professional graphic designer who uses her background in art history and restoration to create everyday objects you can enjoy in your home or as wearable art. It's a joy to bring the best art and design of ages past into everyday life, plus invitations and DIY party projects. If you don't already share my love for artists and illustrators such as Alphonse Mucha, Edmund Dulac, Beatrix Potter, Carl Larsson and John Tenniel, perhaps you'll discover a new enthusiasm.

Alphonse Mucha Laurel Art Nouveau Stickers



Alphonse Mucha Laurel Art Nouveau Stickers from Zazzle.com


Le Laurier (Laurel), 1901 by Alphons Mucha (color lithograph). 

Like its companion piece Le Lierre (Ivy), the wonderful trompe l'oeil effect gives this work an earthy, garden feel and a tactile appeal. You want to actually reach out and feel the texture of the tile mosaics. The Arts and Crafts Movement influence is stronger and the palette more restrained in these two pieces than in most of Mucha's other works, yet that lyrical Mucha magic is as potent as ever.

Now you can enjoy this beautiful work of art on your choice of Zazzle sticker sizes and share it with others.  It gives me great pleasure to bring the best art of past centuries into our own for everyday use and enjoyment.


See the my gallery's Alphonse Mucha Laurel Collection for the matching note cards, postage stamps and many other coordinating items.

PS:  If you're wondering about those funky lines in the photo, they're from the watermark (to protect the image) and will not appear on the printed product.
