Aidan Meehan has selected details of his line drawings from his best-selling Celtic Design series, and has redrawn and elaborated them especially for this larger format pattern book. All the main branches of the wonderful and intricate traditional Celtic ornament are represented: spirals, geometric step and maze patterns, animal and plant patterns, and knotwork. In ancient times, several artists would work together to decorate an important book, one drawing in pen and ink, another painting in the patterns. Here the reader is invited to fulfill the role of painter, while being guided and inspired with notes on the history of the designs and on the choice and order of colors. This repertoire of Celtic designs, created by one of the leading proponents of the genre, is based on traditional sources, such as the Book of Kells and Pictish carved stonework. It is a creative and engaging introduction to Celtic art, and makes an ideal gift for anyone fascinated by the Celtic legacy. It will be of great value to artists, designers, and crafts people interested in experimenting with new patterns and techniques.

Paperback. Condizione: Very Good. A repertoire of Celtic patterns including all the main branches of traditional Celtic ornament and its use in decorating letters. Great works of art, such as the "Book of Kells" and the "Book of Durrow", were created by several artists working together, one drawing in pen and ink and the other filling in the outlines with colour. Here the reader is invited to fulfil the role of painter, while being guided by notes on the history of the designs and on the choice and order of the colours. This collection of designs, created by Aidan Meehan, is based on traditional sources - the great illuminated manuscripts and Pictish carved stonework - and includes the spirals and knotwork, geometric step and maze patterns, and beast, bird and plant designs which characterize Celtic patterns. The volume seeks to be of value to artists and designers interested in experimenting with colour combinations and techniques, as an introduction to Celtic art, and a gift for those interested in the Celtic legacy. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. Codice articolo GOR002111880
