Designs From the Book of Kells by Judy Balchin, softback published by Judy Balchin. ISBN 978-1-84448-417-1, price 7.99 from www.searchpress.com
The beautifully illustrated Book of Kells has been a source of inspiration for numerous artists from multiple disciplines for many years. In this book, Judy Balchin presents over 100 line illustrations that are typical of the Book of Kells and can be used in many ways. Judy also explores the latter with sixteen projects. There are, however, no how-to’s- simply a note on which design was used and how the project was made.
The line drawings are beautifully done and a CD also accompanies the book, making this a good resource for all artists and crafters. The designs can be reproduced at any size. This 48 page book represents great value for money.
