This book is as much about exploration and language as it is design. The ornaments and patterns shared in this volume represent "languages" that have evolved over multiple cultures and eras of time. They range from ancient tribal designs and early Egypt to the fanciful designs of the Elizabethan period and the intricate patterns of the Far East. You will literally enter into conversations that span all of time and culture. As you explore and enjoy each design, look beyond what is "pretty" or visually appealing and consider what the translation or interpretation of their "conversation" might be. What were the Persians saying when they created the patterns they did? And why weren't the Greeks saying the same thing? Or were they, just differently? Of course, you should also appreciate what the patterns and ornaments say to you personally. You will look and some and turn the page without a thought, where the next reader will be captivated by that same design. Whether you choose to just enjoy the designs for what they represent, or wish to incorporate them in your own artistic expression, choose to "see" them for what they are and represent...an expression of thought from our ancestors that continues to declare their passions, hopes and dreams to each of us today. Can you "hear" them?
