Here is a hand-carved eraser stamp of one of my Celtic key patterns in celebration of the International Day of Celtic Art, celebrated by dozens of people worldwide!

A blocky white eraser has been carved with a Celtic key pattern, a maze-like pattern consisting of angled lines and triangles. The raised surface of the design is stained black. The stamp stands on one small edge on a surface of blue handmade paper. In front of the stamp is a rectangular piece of white paper that has been imprinted with the design in black.

There is a video with about a minute of real-time excerpts from the ~30 minutes it took to carve this eraser stamp with one of my Celtic key patterns, along with the final imprinting. The surface has been painted blue. A laser print of the design was placed face-down in the paint while it was wet, and allowed to dry. We start with the dampened paper being rubbed away to reveal the design for carving.
