Fun and useful

I've had a lot of fun playing with color and these patterns, figuring out how the pattern itself could drive color changes and how few colors are needed to not abut each other (the map problem, in mazes). Good history and overview. Good how-to section, as well as an fairly deep collection of maze patterns to use as starting points for your own design / art work.

An excellent book for those interested in Celtic Designs.

This is an excellent book for those looking to create celtic designs.This book teaches the primitive geometric pater, the origin of the maze pattern, the mammoth hunter's maze, the meaning of mazes, and the camonica valley maze. It then goes into drawing mazes freehand, and has a collection of maze patterns.The book is best used when accompianied by Aidan's other Celtic Design books. I have 7 of the books in this series and love them all!All in all this is a great book for someone looking to create celtic designs.
