Louis Comfort Tiffany (1848–1933) was the son of Charles Lewis Tiffany, who founded the Tiffany and Co. jewelry store. Louis Comfort Tiffany began his artistic career as a painter. As a young man he headed an interior design firm, and then went on to found Tiffany Studios, where skilled artists and artisans created works under his direction. In his designs Tiffany incorporated landscapes, floral patterns, and other natural forms in a variety of rich colors. His craftsmanship, artistic innovation, and reverence for natural beauty made him one of the most influential designers of the past two centuries.
His colorful creations are shown as small reproductions on the inside front and back covers. When you color these pictures, you might want to try to copy his colors, or you might decide to use your own. The last page of this book is blank so that you can draw and color your own picture. Let your creativity flow!
