Artist's Comments

Kind of, sort of tutorial. It's more walk-through my painting process. I hope it will be useful to you.
For constructing the knotworks - as I'm still learning that, I really don't feel entitled to give advice about it. Anyway, if you're interested in this art, I can recommend you two great books - Celtic art: Method of construction by George Bain nad Celtic knotwork by his son Ian Bain. The first book has more intuitive approach, although it's not always easy to understand. The second one is more technical, yet very systematic and comprehensible.

Ha! A já doufala, že ten tutorial napomůže lepší představě :D I když by to asi chtělo trochu častěji skenovat ten průběh, ale k tomu se už fakt nepřemluvím :D

:-) Dragarta má pravdu...každopádně moc díky za malou instruktáž a inspiraci :-) Už strašně dlouho mám naskicovaný keltský kříž a tohle mě docela nutí ho konečně dodělat...

Alone, sitting in the sea
Covered by the dust of ages
Awaiting its turn

Že bych někdy uspořádala workshop? :D Ale to by mi nesměl zabrat každý obrázek takovou strašlivou dobu. Každopádně, jestli máš nějaké konkrétní dotazy nebo tak, tak já ráda poradím :)

THIS IS SO BEAUTIFUL IT MAKES ME WANT TO SCREAM!!!

I love this tutorial. I'm going to use it in my watercolors and in my painting on clay with mason stains.

I guess I'll use shellac resist instead of masking fluid, since masking fluid is not going to work too good over white glaze.

Miracles happen every second of our lives. You just have to be aware enough to see them.

true love between a husband and wife comes from dedication and loyalty of heart, created from their innermost beings.
