Artist's Work Preview |
For over a millennium, the intricate knotwork and minute decoration of Celtic art and calligraphy have enchanted the world. Celtic artist Michael Carroll continues in the tradition of the 8th century monks, creating brand-new yet classically ancient designs.
The symbols and motifs used in Celtic art are often ancient, but each artist brings a fresh voice to their interpretation and new designs are not only possible, but inevitable. We invite you to view Michael's original designs, learn about the artist himself, order Celtic prints, and find out more about the ancient monks and their art.
