Download or read book Ready-to-Use Celtic Borders on Layout Grids written by Mallory Pearce and published by Dover Publications. This book was released on 1990 with total page 64 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Here's an attractive and practical collection of royalty-free ornamental frames and borders that captures the beauty and intricacy of Celtic art. Graphic artist Mallory Pearce has skillfully adapted the elaborate decorative accents of Celtic ornament and created 23 handsome full-page border designs plus 14 half-page borders. Also included is a page of nine spectacular animals and mythical creatures (eagle, peacock, cormorant, heron, lion, dog, merman, mermaid, and dragon) and a decorative Celtic alphabet. All borders appear on nonreproducible blue background grids that make layout quick and easy, then disappear when photographed. This is an indispensable volume for commercial artists, illustrators, and craftspeople, who will find a myriad of uses for these easy-to-use borders in the distinctive Celtic style.
