The Purple Ant is a gallery of modern celtic-style knotwork and knotwork mandalas. It is an attempt to keep the traditional Celtic-style knotwork while using colours and textures that breathe new life into the old and together they bring out some thing new and exciting.
I started out simply admiring Celtic knotwork in all its forms. A while back I found some software and that changed everything! Soon I was creating pieces of complexity. Next, I got some art supplies and started to draw Celtic knotwork. Recently I have been learning to tie Celtic knotwork and may even learn to do wood burning and carving with Celtic knotwork design.
It is my hope that you enjoy this gallery as much as I have creating it and that the images bring much pleasure to your eyes.
