Celtic bookplate

Celtic bookplate, gouache and gel ink on parchment

Here’s a copy of the bookplate I actually use. The original was done in gouache and gel ink on parchment paper at a much larger size (slightly smaller than an A4 sheet), and was scanned for printing at a reduced size. The first batch was output with a color laser on plain copy paper; succeeding batches were done on a color inkjet on sticker paper.

Note that the zoomorph — the graphical letter E — isn’t an original design. I downloaded it ages ago from some site I no longer remember, but if you do recognize where it’s from, please drop me a line so I can credit the website. Thanks!
