So, I paint stuff too...

In addition to brewing, I have taken up scribal arts in the past year.  I have worked on 7 live kingdom scrolls, 8 backlogs, and 5 baronial.  It occurred to me that I should publish my work somewhere.  Here it all is.

The Penis Tree

I totally dig medieval marginalia.  It's hilarious.  Full of cats licking their buts, people pooping, weird grotesques, and nuns harvesting penises from trees.  I have always wanted to recreate the picture of the nuns, but, lets face it, that is not exactly an image most people would want on their award scrolls.  But then there was the scribal auction.  A chance for the scribes to create artwork that would be auctioned off for charity.  I knew right away what I was going to do.   Oddly, this sold for quite a lot of money, and was actually one of the most bid on pieces in the auction.   Calligraphy by violet Hughes

White Vine

 I love white vine scrolls.  They are beautiful in their simplicity.  I love the bright colors contrasting with the white.  This scroll went out in January ethereal court. Words by Slaine baen Ronan FitzRobert obert

I got to do a Maunche scroll!!!

 This scroll was super special to me.  It was for a dear friend and member of my household, and someone whose work I have always been in awe of. Because Yasemin has a middle eastern persona, I did some research to find an appropriate exemplar.  I finally settled on "Bahman Ardeshir Swallowed by a Dragon," an illustration from the epic Darabnameh.   The painting was done between 1580 and 1585.   Exemplar The words were composed by Aislinn Chiabach.  She actually based them on the epic poem in the exemplar.   Calligraphy by Vittorio Antonello
