Paintings by Chagall

Many inspirations in my designs come from my love for great art and the artists who create it. Although I have many favorites, Marc Chagall never fails to captivate me.
Born in Russia in 1887 to a Jewish family, his Post- Impressionist style and colorful romantic life transfers to his dreamlike canvas. In later years, having fled the Nazi's, he uses his art to fight back and send a message of equality for his people who, at the time, had lost their voice. Most apparent in his works is a story of love-- A love for color and imagination, a love for his people and a love for a woman with whom he spent the greater part of his life.
It is easy to fall victim to love at first sight.

So get ready to fall hard.
