Reed's Celtic Computer "Art" Site. I'm Reed Mihaloew (known in the Society for Creative Anachronism (SCA) as Rolin Thurmundsson, and available through e-mail at "[last name] [at] mitre [dot] org"). I've been interested in Celtic-style art since the late 70's, having been introduced to it through the SCA. My original work was all done by hand, but I started to experiment with computer drawn work in the early 80's; originally on a Mac. My current computer environment is described in Tools and Techniques below. I originally experimented with "drawing" type packages (e.g., MacDraw) trying to achieve the best control over the lines and bands in the knotwork.
My original aim was to generate Celtic page templates that I could trace with a light table and fill in by hand using manual calligraphic and painting techniques. Despite the name of this page, I make no claims to "artistry" in these works--just that I like them. I consider myself heavily indebted to a number of talented people.

The name "Book of Kells" is derived from the Abbey of Kells in Kells, County Meath in Ireland, where it was kept for much of the medieval period. The manuscript was never finished. The Book of Kells contains the four gospels of the Christian scriptures written in black, red, purple, and yellow ink in an insular majuscule script, preceded by prefaces, summaries, and concordances of gospel passages. It is believed that some 30 folios have been lost. The book, as it exists now, contains preliminary matter, the complete text of the Gospels of Matthew, Mark and Luke, and the Gospel of John through John 17:13.
