Celtic Mandala 2016 Calendar
The Celtic Mandala weekly engagement calendar presents the magical knot weavings of Welsh artist Jen Delyth. Jen's intricate paintings and illustrations are founded in her deep connection to her Celtic heritage and are a personal journey into the language of ancient Celtic myth, mythology, and symbol. Jen Delyth's original iconographic style is inspired by the spirit in nature and symbol and Celtic pagan knotwork, which expresses our mythic connection to the natural world.
The Celts perceived the presence of divine forces in all aspects of nature. Patterns of harmony and balance, dark and light, winter and summer, female and male are woven throughout Celtic tradition. Celtic knots and patterning reflect their belief in the continuity of life and the interconnection of all things, plants, animals, and otherworldly divinities. Celtic art is a symbolic repository of the mythology and spirituality of the ancient Celts.
