The Art Nouveau ("New Art") movement strove to make art accessible and a part of  every day life.  It typically included patterns with natural elements (animals, birds, flowers and plants) and frequently made use of bold colors.  So don't be afraid to get expressive when coloring these delightful pages.
The designs are full of movement and the patterns use mirroring, repetition and sequencing to draw you in. They awaken your creative mind and get the imaginative juices flowing. As the colors bring the images to life, the process becomes both exciting and relaxing with a true sense of satisfaction.
