Travel from the dawn of time to our own world. Experience the power and heritage of a symbolic design system that has survived virtually intact since the neolithic era of Old Europe. Like a tree, Celtic Art is ever growing, evolving, accumulating and perfecting the images and spiritual concepts that connect us to the earth and our environment.
No experience is required.
The first class will consist of a historical background presentation followed by an introductory hands on demonstration on how to make Celtic Knotwork.
During the second and third class we will use a variety of materials to create Celtic Illuminations. Patrick will have pen and inks, as well as calligraphy style markers and brushes. For those challenged by the pens, he will have acrylic paints.
Feel free to bring your own art colored pencils and pads if you would prefer.
