I wish you had taught me geometry, maths and drawing in school - I might actually have learned something!! Thank you so much for these, your instructions are clear and easy to learn and I love trying out the patterns.
I've been using your videos to teach my middle school art classes how to do celtic knots. They LOVE it! They have so much success using your methods! THANK YOU for taking a difficult subject and making it easy!
I'm so pleased that you found them useful, Pam! Say hello to the kids from me! ;-) Have a look at some of my designs on the playlist called Freehand Space-filling Patterns - kids love these too, especially the square spirals.
Do some on your own! Mr. NIcholls directions are easy to follow and you can stop the video (or go back) as you go along. It is so worth it! I have 4th and 5th graders as well as older students doing all sorts of complicated designs! And when they color and shade them, it gets even better! So much fun!
Thank you so much for saying so, Pam! I'm really please that they have been of use to your children. Have a look at my playlist called Freehand Space-filling patterns, I'm sure they'll have a lot of fun with them too. Let me know how they get on! Thanks again, Davidx
Thank you David! I came across your channel and the content is absolute golden. Love it and I’m learning more and more after each video I watch. All the best
Excellent videos. I'm starting going through Euclid's "Elements" (again) next week to commemorate turning 45, and these are a real motivator. Thanks alot.
hi ,have been trying to follow a book on drawing celtic designs and was struggling terribly. watched your video and now, same day, I am creating wonderful celtic mandalas with ease! love your easy instructions instructions and humour, Wish i had a fairy to do the tedious bits too. Thankyou very much.
Susan, I'm so glad that you found them useful. Also check out Freehand Space-filling Patterns. In about four weeks I'll be putting up 'A Complete Course in Calligraphy' (48 videos). If you're interested, stay subscribed! Thank you for taking the time to comment.
My Mommy says I have to wait until I am 18 months old to have a Sharp-Sharp made from real Adult Metal, by then my Brother will be a whole year old! We are planning to open a Tattoo Parlor in your Hometown since it is already popular there. Thanks for the Tip! signed: Baby Huey and his brother Wrinkles
you are a great teacher :) can you please teach how to draw acanthus leaf patterns.. i had requested this a few years back.. but you were planning your calligraphy series then.. but if you can, then plz do it... i would love to learn how to draw floral leaf designs. you make learning even d complex things so easy :)
@@davidnicholls100 the link point to a TH-cam video by someone imitating a Russia breaking padlocks with his hands. Your videos are great btw, very helpful and thank God no nervous background music. Thank you for sharing the skills!
Hi David...I'm wondering if there really are 'rules' with where you can put break lines. I'm trying to do a 4 x 13 grid and use someone's name for the break lines. I'm struggling with it and thinking that possibly there really are some impossible situations!
4x any number is problematic, but one solution is to extend the grid to give yourself more wiggle room. By shading/colouring David's design 4 (in this series) we can see an interlaced X and an O from a 3x3 grid. Placing L shaped break lines at its corners, and extending the grid up and down to 5 or 7 you could create something like the carpet near the end of video 14, with a continuous ribbon interlacing stand-alone letters.

Is the same as a triquetra?
Sort of. A trequetra is a trefoil with a circle inside
