And with that, another Webminister has received a scroll made by me, this time Simon Talbot. Simon was honored along with the rest of the Webministry for the services provided during the “Weyrd Tymes” of 2020. I took this opportunity to go back to Cadels. For as stressful as they are to try and map, […]
This was one of those scrolls that just kind of fell into my lap. Audry”s student, Octavia had worked on the illumination and Audrye ran short on time to do the calligraphy, so she asked me to help out. The words were zen scrolled during the recording of court. Zen Scroll: scroll text that is […]

Originally this had been done as a fun quote piece in my practice book. It turned out REALLY well, and I shared it on various social media. Katie fell in love with it. Neither of us could convince me to cut it from my book, so she requested a framable recreation. The original was done […]
So this past Saturday was the 100 Minutes War in North New Jersey. I dropped off a scroll at East Kingdom Royal (EKR) and noticed the clerk looking worried. Come to find out that there may have been some miscommunication on a scroll assignment due that day. I let her know, if she needs any […]
For this years War of the Roses (Go York!) I had the pleasure of working with Lady Elisabeth Greenleaf. Elisabeth did a “woodcut” style from 16th Century England.
