"Interlaced patterns of knots, braided chains and spirals are motifs found in the art of many civilizations but it is in Celtic art that they acquired their universal symbolism-- the creation of the world, nature's balance and the cycle of life...Be inspired by the colours of the famous Book of Kells, one of the finest examples of Celtic illuminated manuscripts, and at the same time enjoy the meditative state that colouring in these beautiful motifs will bring." --Back cover.
