Celtic Borders by Aidan Meehan
Celtic borders are natural developments of Celtic patterns – an astonishing art form whose legacy has fascinated people worldwide for many centuries. Aidan Meehan shows how to create a variety of rectangular Celtic Borders, from abstract to figurative shapes, based upon a simple square grid. Each border is proportioned to fit a standard letter-size page, but can also be used for stationery or illuminated pages, and can be adapted to any number of craft applications. Artists, designers, calligraphers, and craftspeople will find this an invaluable work of reference and inspiration.
Aidan Meehan has been researching and practising Celtic knot design since discovering the triple-grid method of Celtic knot design in 1974. He is the author of the eight-volume Celtic Design series and Celtic Alphabets, Celtic Borders, The Book of Kells Painting Book, The Lindisfarne Painting Book and Celtic Knots, all published by Thames & Hudson.
