BBC Move to Kill Dr

New Stuff I Can't Show

Well, I have one scroll and one coronet done but can't post pics yet. They will be given at Pennsic so I will post them after I get back in mid August. Working on a second coronet and scroll that can't be shown till after Pennsic as well.

New Coronet

OK, this one will be delivered at Pennsic. Commission, "Rose and Crescent Coronet", 22 (and a tiny bit), Leather, with Acrylic and artificial stones and pearls.  22

Pelican Scroll Given and Done

Now that it is given I can post pictures of the latest scroll I did for the SCA. A long time friend and founding Baron of my home group was awarded his Pelican. For those who do not know what a Pelican is in the SCA, You know what a Knight is ,well a Pelican is a Knight for service instead of fighting. It is a Peerage, one of 4 Great Awards that are SCA wide and are the best you can get. Here is his scroll, I did the illumination (the art) and a friends Baroness Daniela did the Calligraphy, it is in German because that is Heinrich's persona. This is Acrylic,  Egg Tempera and Micron pen on Parchment (animal skin). Picture 21.

Pelican scroll based on illustration 107 from the Theuerdank, German, 1517 by Leonhard Beck: Before the city walls, surrounded by the royal household, Theuerdank recives the laurel wreath from Queen Ehrenreich assisted by Ehrenhold.  Illumination by Master Tristan Alexander, Calligraphy by Baroness Daniela Schwartzhaupt.
