Celtic art & belief as a living spirit in humanity,
By DJ Rix (NJ USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: The Art of Celtia (Paperback)
Courtney Davis brings together in his art a deep understanding of Celtic skills & tradition along with a charming "pop" sensibility. Before attempting to create Celtic design, one would do well to live with "The Art of Celtia" for awhile. Davis presents an excellent compilation of his own works, each one examining a mystery (The Flaming Door, Seat of the Soul, Sacred Water), goddess & god, metaphor (the Green Man), archetype, animal totem or decorative motif (Unfolding Growth, Cosmic Loom). The book includes illustrations Davis created for works about Merlin & Grail Quest symbols, along with excepts of text & poetry from those books. An optimistic book that displays Celtic art & belief as a living spirit in humanity. Bob Rixon

Great Book for Lovers of Celtic Art,
By A Customer
This review is from: The Art of Celtia (Paperback)
A fantastic book for aspiring artists, or those simply interested in the world of Celtic art! Filled with gorgeous full-colour illustrations, excellent examples of knotwork, key patterns, zoomorohic designs, gods/goddesses, heroes/heroines, plus detailed descriptions of each piece's symbolic meaning. A must-see!
