| Calontir Scribes' Handbook | |||||||||||||||||||||

| Painting with Period Pigments | |||||||||||||||||||||
| While gouache paints are commonly used to paint award scrolls in the Society, a more period feel in creation and appearance, comes from grinding and dispersing dry pigment in a liquid binder. To view the webpage about my efforts in painting and teaching this, please click here. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Gallery of My Recent Calligraphy and Illumination | |||||||||||||||||||||
| These projects became my babies that I freely gave as competition prizes or as award 'scrolls' in the Kingdom of Calontir and the Barony of Lonely Tower. To view my recent works please click here. | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Gallery of My Hand-Engraved Glass | |||||||||||||||||||||
| Hand diamond-point engraving can change simple thriftshop glassware into a personalized treasure. It seems it was treasured that way in the 16th century too. To view my diamond engraved glass please click here. | |||||||||||||||||||||
