Inspired Artist: Michael Sowa

If you've seen the film Amelie even once (or 20+ times like me), then you probably noticed the unique artwork hanging above Amelie's bed.  There's something so captivating about it!

I did a little search and found out that the work was created by Michael Sowa a German artist who was born in 1945 (read more here on the Design Scene blog).  Several of his prints are available online, but sadly I could find no official site for this incredible artist... so for now, these images are all I have to share with you.  Don't you think they are lovely?!

Search for Micheal Sowa prints and postcards at:

Art.com, PosterShop (for those in the UK), AllPosters.com, and postcards at Gorey Details.

Thank you so much for your lovely comments everyone! Yes, Amelie is my personal favorite... I just adore that film.

Anyhow... have a wonderful weekend everyone!
