CELTIC CROSS I is an original design by Michael Carroll. Classic Celtic knotwork
patterns form the base and shaft of this Cross, while the distinctive wheel shape of the
ancient High Crosses is here given a more modern, open treatment.
The design was transferred and carved into the printing block by the artist, and the
parchment paper hand-treated with gouache to create an aged appearance. Each sheet was
inked and printed entirely by hand, and is signed by the artist. Each lino print has its
own individual characteristics as they are printed on hand treated parchment paper.
