Art Nouveau Patterns

Here's the "pelican feeding chick" pattern in sketch model form. The pattern is based on a drawing by Sir Edward Burne-Jones called "The Pelican" (pictures in the pattern sheet on the previous post).

For the purposes of our project, the design is symbolic of Sister Virginia Mulhern (for whom the property at 35 Creighton is named) and her contributions to the community of Jamaica Plain.








Keep in mind the final project will be out of birch plywood with a natural linseed oil / beeswax finish. Not black like a Rorschach test...
