Purchase options and add-ons

With great skill and flair, Dutch artist Co Spinhoven has translated the stirring imagery of traditional Celtic art into a collection of 130 exciting and versatile stencil designs. With them, graphic artists and craftspeople can bring to their work the distinctive beauty and drama of a great decorative arts tradition. The designs, all copyright-free, are derived from the Book of Kells and other early medieval Celtic sources. Their themes range from birds and beasts of myth and scripture to elegantly wrought abstract motifs.
The designs vary widely in size, shape, and complexity. They range from large and elaborate squares, circles, and rectangles to elongated border motifs to minimal design accents. Co Spinhoven has adapted each of them admirably to the technical requirements of stencil painting. Graphic artists, textile designers, and many others in the arts and crafts will find these sturdy, reusable stencils indispensable for adding ― quickly and easily ― authentic touches of Celtic imagery to their projects.

Nice designs

Reviewed in the United States on August 29, 2016

Verified Purchase

Love this book. Just slip some blank white paper in between the pages & color. Paper will wrinkle if it gets to damp, so be careful if your using a paint or a gel pen. Nice bold black lines. Looks great against the glass. Again it as also depends on media choices.

Bought this for my son who loves video games. Loves it! Bought it with a carving set. Thank you for an opportunity to get my teen son off the screen! Bought the old carbon paper for it for wood.

You must trace and cut out

Reviewed in the United States on July 27, 2021

Verified Purchase

The media could not be loaded.

Terrific black and white designs printed on paper which means we can trace them without attempting to sketch them freehand.
On the back cover description—"...will find these sturdy, reusable stencils indispensable for adding—quickly and easily—authentic Celtic imagery to their products" does NOT mean actual pre-cut stencils. You can easily trace them onto a transparent product, but then you must cut them out with an XACTO knife, or use another method entirely, which I don't have.

Many wonderful unique designs

This is a beautiful big book full of intricate, detailed patterns with multiple variations on each design. Easy to enlarge or reduce to make your own stencils. I am so glad I bought this. I really think it should be priced higher.

The artwork was heavier than I was hoping for, not as delicate design as I wanted. It does have some interesting designs though, so that was a saving grace.

Not what I expected. But very interesting.

These are NOT stencils. These are prints on every page (front & back) and not even fesible to make your own stencil.
Very disappointed as I searched several sources for an actual stencil I could lay on a surface and stencil the design, not lay tracing paper over the design. Basically clip art.
