Abstract Book of Kells–style figure of Cú Chulainn, reduced to ornamental shapes. His body is twisted into spirals, interlace, and zoomorphic motifs, echoing the manuscript’s abstract animals. His limbs and torso flow into knots and curves, while his face is a stylized mask, flat and iconic, patterned with spirals. The Gae Bolga spear appears as a decorated vertical form, intertwined with knots and serpent-like curves. Within his body, smaller zoomorphic fragments (hound, raven, fish, serpent) are woven, hidden like Kells marginalia. Colors: manuscript palette — ochre gold, emerald green, deep red, lapis blue, with black outlines and ivory gaps. High contrast, flat style, worn texture. Mood: sacred, emblematic, mythic — a warrior transformed into a symbolic illuminated figure. Background: none (transparent). For printing: 4500px tall, 300 DPI, transparent background, RGB safe for CMYK. No opacity under 40%. See more
