Description: In Celtic culture, the mysterious image of a horned being permeates from the Iron Age in the Gaulish La Tène culture all the way up to 19th century England in the legends of Herne the Hunter. In spite of several depictions of a “horned god” in Celtic artwork throughout the centuries, the answers to exactly who this horned being was is not clear. The name “Cernunnos” is found on an artifact known as “the Pillar of the Boatman”.

Description: Cernunnos is the “Horned One”, a Celtic god associated with sexuality, fertility, the hunt, and the underworld.

Description: A mythical entity with deer antlers and wolf companions is depicted against a black background. Above the entity is a circular symbol composed of three interlocked spirals, a triskelion, rendered in a glowing light green. The central figure is a muscular humanoid with teal skin, long dark hair, and a loincloth, kneeling. Three wolves are positioned around the figure, looking in various directions.
Description: This design portrays Cernunnos, the ancient Celtic Horned God—lord of the forest, animals, and the eternal cycle of life, death, and rebirth. Seated in deep meditation and crowned with majestic antlers, he embodies the raw, untamed power of nature and the sacred balance between creation and decay.

The surrounding branches and organic forms reflect his unity with the earth and all living things. A powerful and grounding design for those drawn to Celtic mythology, pagan spirituality, and the wild forces of nature.
Description: Based on a compilations of images of Cernunnos, I've re/created this version in my own style. Cernunnos is holding two torcs-- a type of Celtic jewelry-- and is wearing a large brooch. It's one of my few designs that's not completely historically accurate, but I really liked how the image turned out!
Description: This design is based off of the manuscript of the famous Middle English poem Sir Gawain of the Green Knight (from the Cotton MS Nero A X manuscript). I've recreated one of the illustration by hand carving my own block print then printing and scanning it. The image depicts Sir Gawain near his final confrontation with the Green Knight.
