Art Deco In Bloom ArtBlock

‘Art Deco In Bloom’ ArtBlock

This painting was inspired by ornate wrought iron which is a visual cornerstone of New Orleans architecture throughout the historic French Quarter. Wrought iron (worked by hand) made it's first appearance in quarter in the mid-1800's, replacing tall wooden columns which previously supported the balconies and porches. This painting depicts the Art Deco style of iron work which was a popular design movement from 1910 until 1939. This style represented luxury and glamour through the use of exquisite craftsmanship. But nothing says "Naturally Nawlin's" better than a balcony covered in planter baskets filled with draping foliage and flowers topped off with hanging baskets potted with lush ferns gently blowing in the breeze.

What’s An ArtBlock?

A handmade product lovingly created in my studio using one of my paper prints mounted on a 6”x6”x1.75” solid block of stained poplar wood.

How do Display an ArtBlock?

ArtBlocks can be displayed sitting on a shelf or can hang aided by the routed key hole slot on the back which allows the block to sit flush to the wall.
