How would you recommend I get started drawing celtic knotwork?
First of all, knotwork requires a lot of patience! So don’t be frustrated that you can’t create elaborate knots at the start. Try some very simple pieces first. I suggest picking up a book at your local bookstore on how to do knotwork. There are plenty of titles out there. My own favorite is “Celtic Art” by George Bain although be warned that the author uses a very compact method of demonstration. I’ve heard from other people that they thought the steps were not broken down enough in this book. It worked very well for me though. Artist Cari Buziak has several basic tutorials on her website to start you off as well.
