Altered Illuminated Page


Well, I finally got around to finding the photo of my final art project for my art class. We were supposed to take a piece of artwork and alter it at least 25% which I did. The gold foiling didn't work so well. I used colored pencils to color in the piece as it was supposed to be very bright. I removed some of the religious text and put in a "cead mille failte" which means a hundred thousand welcomes in Gaelic. I am planning on redoing it as I want to redo the gold foiling.
This was a page inspired from the Book of Kells which is located at Trinity College in Dublin, Ireland. I have a particular love of Medieval, Renaissance, and Baroque art.
