Description Wow, this was exhausting! I started it at 9:30 this morning, and just "finished" it a few minutes ago...

I got the idea a couple of weeks ago, when I saw another piece of celtic knotwork posted that had been made this way. I thought then "How easy would that be to do!" and grabbed a bunch of B&W clipart off the web. These knots all started off as plain black stencils on white backgrounds.

Well, it was a lot of fun to make, and I sure learned a hellova lot -- like how to make that cool enameled paint effect on the box. Everything was done with Photoshop, and many layer effects.

This looks great. I know the perils of Photoshop and how long it can take until something looks 'right'. You've done very well here, I love it.

Remarkable style, a nicely composed and organized piece both faithful to it's subject matter and intelligently designed. You've got skill and style, hard commodities to come by. This will be well recieved, I expect.
