Evolution of a Celtic Knot

One day this week, I spent a good part of the afternoon playing with watercolor washes. I chose to embellish this one with an intricate piece of Celtic knotwork. I thought the process was almost as beautiful as the finished piece– so here it is for your perusal. Enjoy!

We look at life from the back side of the tapestry. And most of the time, what we see is loose threads, tangled knots and the like. But occasionally, God’s light shines through the tapestry, and we get a glimpse of the larger design with God weaving together the darks and lights of existence.
