More blanks!

A Nightingale out of a Dutch Bestiary.  The most beautiful singer in the animal kingdom. 

 Welsh gramatical texts from the 1500's found at Oxford Jesus College, MS 15.  I thought them beautiful in their simplicity.    This one and the one below it can be found here  http://image.ox.ac.uk/show?collection=jesus&manuscript=ms15


A book of kells-esque bird creature.  I love knot work and the knot animals, but its so intricate and such a pain that I usually only do one or two per year.
