John is back with his favorites from last season's Target collection. Inspired by his love for 18th & 19th-century nature imagery, the collection features throw pillows, candles, tableware, and more.
Last fall marked the 30th anniversary of John’s first shop in New York. A few years after starting his one-man decoupage design business in Boston, he moved to New York in the early 1990s. As orders increased, he hired a team of artisans to craft his motifs and opened his first shop in 1995 on 2nd Street in the East Village... a quiet block that would soon become his creative hub.
