CELTIC Spirals - 'Wheel of Celtia', St Paddy's Coloring, St Patrick's Day Coloring, Coloring Book, Celtic Clipart, Celtic Coloring Pages PDF

The fully decorated pages in the old Celtic illuminated manuscripts are called 'carpet pages', because their complexity of color and design is reminiscent of the ornate persian carpets. This design, of a spiral double wheel situated on a cross shape, is a new design in the spirit of the old manuscript carpet pages. I wanted the dominant design style to be spirals in this piece, to really give the feel of a turning wheel, so you'll notice that the central spiral rundle turns on a triple spiral hub, branching out into the 6 other spirals. Each spiral is interconnected... turning one spiral turns the spirals it's connected to because nothing stands in isolation, and so the whole wheel turns. I use the cruciform shape behind the wheel to symbolize life, as the cross shape is one of the major ancient symbols, used to represent many tetrads such as the 4 winds, the 4 directions, 4 elements, 4 essences of the body, etc.

--------------------------------------------
A lot has been published in the last few years about the benefits of coloring. Whether you enjoy it as a bit of personal time for yourself, as something to turn your mind off from the ongoing chatter of daily life's demands, or maybe you're like me and you're a magpie for anything colored!! Coloring can be a way to destress and as some "me time" back into your life.

What will your project for this week be?

Enjoy, and happy coloring!
