Knots Within Knots - Colored

Description

This was inspired by more traditional Celtic Knots. I know mine are rather "different" than your usual knots from say, the Book of Kells and other reference material. I just learned a bad habit and haven't learned the correct way yet. Not to mention my style of coloring with Copic markers is probably unorthodox. From other full page knots I've seen though, most pages are made up of smaller knots in certain shapes, i.e. you have a Celtic Cross being one knot then a circle of four quadrants in the background with four identical knots.

Being the simple minded person I am, I decided to try and trump all the other knotters out there by having a hexagon within a triangle within a circle within a square within an octagon. ;) This is one I colored to help distinguish the shapes. Man, scanners are ruthless when it comes to getting the right color; the original is a tad lighter on each hue. And there are little anomalies from where I rush through things. Unfortunately all my works have these since my ADD won't let me sit down and polish them... I'll upload a B&W version cause I like it just as much. It really does look worlds different without color.

Here is the same knot prior to coloring: [link]
