not only did he make furniture pieces but he also painted designs on them!. He also was an avid bookmaker and was obsessed with decorating these books in a medieval style - all of this leading to becoming the founder of the arts and crafts movement!. All objects from this movement are highly decorative but not generally ornate!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

He was an artist, but he also was a founder of the Arts and Crafts movement!. He believed that everyday items could, and should, be beautiful!. He believed that all craftsmen should elevate their work from function to something more than just function!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Of course! How could there be a doubt!? Poet, artist, designer, socialist!. He was an artist because he designed and made with his own hand - paintings, textiles, applied art-objects!. Check out the website for the William Morris Society!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
