Title:

Goddess

Artist:

Dee Van Houten

Medium:

Painting - Gouache Painting

Description:

This enchanting painting is in the Art Nouveau style. It depicts the twelve sun signs of the Zodiac. The symbols shown on the sun crystal ball are for each sign in the astrological Zodiac. Delicate leaves, vines and flowers intertwine themselves throughout the watercolor and gouache painting.

The Art Nouveau style is characterized by the use of sinuous, graceful, curving lines, interlaced patterns, women, flowers, plants, and other motifs inspired by nature. Art Nouveau is one of my favorite art periods, and I began experimenting with its rhythmic fluid lines, flowing design and the strength of its stylization in my own work.
