CELTIC DESIGN: Maze patterns
Aidan Meehan
Celtic mazes belong to an ancient class of straight-line spiral ornament which Celtic artists of the early Middle Ages developed with unequalled ingenuity and virtuosity.
These patterns can be drawn freehand, even by inexperienced draughtsmen who follow the methods described here – a technique used by the ancient masters, now rediscovered and clearly illustrated with plentiful examples.
The beauty and simplicity of the designs make them an ideal introduction to Celtic art, providing delightful patterns and decorations that everyone can produce for themselves.
