2012 Backlog Scroll

I meant to post this last year, I just never got around to it.  This is a backlog scroll that I did in 2012 for a Viking persona.  I have to find the words, and post them when I get a chance.

Please forgive me for posting it sideways.  I'm having technical difficulties!

Ostgardr Schola

I had a great time teaching at the Ostgardr schola this past weekend and taking all the other classes...Mistress Eleanor Catlyng's intro class, Dolsalena's Gilding and painting class and Niccolo's knotwork for beginner's class.

Thank you everyone! I had a blast. I'll hopefully see some of you around.

Happy Scribing,
Li

upcoming class

Greetings,
I will be teaching Calligraphy 101 at Ostgardr Schola in Yonkers, NY on November 5, 2011.

Details here.

Here is a class description:
Interested in becoming a scribe? Don’t know where to start? Calligraphy is just one component of a scroll in the SCA. Together, there 3 major sections: the illumination (painting part of the scroll), the calligraphy (pretty handwriting) and the words (text of the scroll). This workshop will focus on calligraphy, discussing some tools and offering an introduction to three basic hands: Italic, Uncial and Batarde.

I hope to see you there!
