How to Draw a Celtic Heart Knot

Step 1.


A heart knot is just what the name suggests- a heart! Sketch out a heart and where the two ends meet at the top, bring both sides down and together to form a diamond.

Step 2.


Using the lines for the diamond, make three interlocking lines as shown in blue. All three of them should be slight curved.

Step 3.


Outside the heart you drew in the first step, sketch in another heart. This time, when the two lines meet in the middle at the top, the line on the right goes straight down to the first heart and the line on the left stops at the line on the right. I

Description: All celtic designs are known for two things: they run on infinitely using a single line and they are intricate. Most celtic designs look dreadfully intimidating to make. But, when you take it easily step-by-step, it really isn't all that hard to draw. This heart knot that I will be teaching you how to draw is fairly simple.

But nonetheless, this is a beautiful piece of celtic art for all to experience. Enjoy!
