George Bain
In this pioneering work, Bain shows how simple principles, no more difficult than those used in needlecraft, were used to create "the work of angels" that illuminated The Book of Kells. He also explains how you can use these principles in recreating intricate knots, interlacements, spirals, Kellstype initials, human and animal figures, and other distinctive Celtic designs in your own art and craft work. Features over 500 illustrations.
