  Filed under Celtic artists
  Sep 30

  Courtney Davis is an example of a contemporary artist who is reviving traditional Celtic symbols and designs and placing them into a modern form. His books are especially appealing to people who want to make art themselves, or perhaps get tattoos or decorate their homes with Celtic motifs, because he goes into detail about how to create and use these designs.

  For example, in books such as the Celtic Art Source book, Courtney Davis discusses the history and traditional uses of Celtic crosses, spirals, knotwork and zoomorphic (animal) images. He gives examples of how these can be used as borders, mandalas or other decorations, as well as displaying fully formed colorful images he has created.

  Courtney Davis has also created other books that specialize in particular Celtic symbols, such as spirals, as well as calendars and card decks with his work.
