So, my programme at the Nelson-Atkins went phenomenally. I got to meet Dr. Khandekhar (and even got lunch with him and some of the other collaborators), and I got to geek out about the colour blue for a good hour and a half in the galleries. My beloved father-in-law even got photos of me presenting … Continue reading Oh Geez. . . more updates

Ryan Mac Whyte’s Golden Mantle
It's not every day that I get a message with "hey, can you do this" for kingdoms outside my own. Most of the time, I double check to make sure that another person in a kingdom's scribal college can do it before I can, because shipping scrolls can be fraught. This time, though, with a … Continue reading Ryan Mac Whyte’s Golden Mantle
Laurel Scroll for Marguerite Honoree d’Cheneau
I've been kind of slow on taking major SCA projects right now. After merchanting at Birka, I definitely needed the rest, and honestly, as I'm wedding planning for my nuptials in October of this year, I don't really have a lot of time for SCA projects. Though, sometimes, an opportunity presents that's too good to … Continue reading Laurel Scroll for Marguerite Honoree d’Cheneau
Grimwulf’s Cross
I got a scroll commission from our Royal Scribe to do a scroll for my friend Grimwulf, whose service towards creating hundreds of digitized award badges for the Knowne World was the impetus for his Calon Cross (GoA-service, Calontir). When I start off doing scribal work, I start by researching their persona, along with items … Continue reading Grimwulf’s Cross
Brian’s Calon Cross
Generally, I try to post about a scroll when it gets presented, but attacks of life happen. This was one such scroll. Back in July, I got asked if I could do a scroll for a friend (one of many that went out during the last reign), and I said that I could. With Brian's … Continue reading Brian’s Calon Cross
Post-Lilies War Scroll Roundup
Even though I wasn't able to go to Lilies War this year for varying reasons, I still had scrolls that made it to Lilies. The first scroll was assigned from Calontir Battle Scribes. Calontir Battle Scribes allows people to ask for scrolls for prizes at events, allowing people to attempt original pieces with regard to … Continue reading Post-Lilies War Scroll Roundup
Calon Cross for Gawin Käppler
No rest for the wicked, really. No sooner had I completed John's scroll, I got contacted by the Royal Scribe again on if I could get another scroll done. Now, this one had a challenge of time, with it being given out two weeks after I had gotten the assignment. Thankfully, for this scroll, I'm … Continue reading Calon Cross for Gawin Käppler
Silver Hammer for John Bowyer and other good news
Now that things are starting to kick back into gear, courts are happening again, and life is slowly starting to return to a new sense of "normal," it also means that my scribal slate is starting to fill with activities and assignments again. Back around the very end of last year, I got asked "hey, … Continue reading Silver Hammer for John Bowyer and other good news
Creative Anachronism in the Time of Corona(virus)
Hi all. I know, it's been a bit since I last blogged. With the global shutdown, and with my modern job heavily tied to taking care of contingencies just like this, I didn't have much time to devote to the Society. . .until I could then devote some time to my arts, for a bit. … Continue reading Creative Anachronism in the Time of Corona(virus)
Thaddeus’ Achievement of Arms
Finally! I got another thing checked off my list of backlog projects! We had a fundraiser for tents for Heralds' Point and for arts and sciences for Lilies War, and I offered a heraldic achievement using gold leaf. Unfortunately, my life got a bit busy, and this got put on the back burner. I finally … Continue reading Thaddeus’ Achievement of Arms
