How to Draw a Celtic Cross 1 - Irish 7th century Style

How to draw a Celtic cross with Jason Bellchamber. This 7th century style utilizes 2:3 proportions and is a now classic symbol. Use a compass, paper, a clear ruler (is best), a pencil, eraser and pen. One of the earliest examples are from Ireland and Scotland from the 7th Century when the Celtic tribes there converted to Christianity.

The Flower of Life... Gorgeous display of sacred geometry. I love how basically all of these sacred shapes were all made with a straight edge and some sort of compass. Brilliant! Thank you for sharing.

I'm curious as to what book you featured in the beginning to base the cross off of. It looks interesting!

[@banjoe1981]

Actually it was the Irish monks who brought this design to Iona which would conclude that it came from Ireland.

[@leeRoshea]
