title: Celtic Ornament: Art of the Scribe
author:  Courtney Davis 
description: Celtic design, rich and mysterious, surrounds us in the Western world. The resurgence of Celtic music, interest in illustrated manuscripts like The Book of Kells and the Lindisfarne Gospels, and the success of all things New Age have made zoomorphic ornaments, key patterns, and interlaced knot-work part of the artist's visual vocabulary. Born in South Wales and renowned as an artist and expert on Celtic art, Davis gives us ways of interpreting Celtic imagery, a description of its tools and methods, and an understanding of the monastic lives of the scribes who created it. Less a how-to book than an appreciation of the art form, this will be a very useful source for artists. Though it lacks color illustrations, it is more useful than Andy Sloss's narrowly focused How To Draw Celtic Key Patterns (LJ 3/15/98). For a more traditional workbook, see Aidan Meehan's Celtic Design: A Beginner's Manual (Thames &amp; Hudson, 1991). <br />Copyright 2001 Reed Business Information, Inc.
