OVERALL DESIGN
I'm looking at getting an arm piece. A piece that incorporates the Deltoid area down the arm, close to the elbow. I guess that would make it about 8"-10" long and roughly 6" wide. The idea is a leaf bearing tree, kind of a tree of life type design. I would really like the tree to be quite detailed. I would also like to incorporate some Celtic knot work in the design as well. I am a big fan of the knot work illustrated in the Book of Kell's and the Book of Durrow. I’m looking for some artistic interpretation here because I’m not sure how to mix the designs. I really like Matthew Brown's realistic style and I am blown away by his arm pieces that mix multiple images in a surrealistic collage. The following are some inspirational images. Tree designs that I think are cool, Celtic Knots from both the book of Kell's and the Book of Durrow, as well as some of the surrealistic collages by Matthew Brown.
