This page is part of an online portfolio of SCA artwork by Yves de Fortanier and Elspeth nic Cormac. We did these in 2001.
About the scrolls below
These were presented at Red Tower XXIX, September 2001.
Calligraphy and illumination by Yves, heavy-duty emotional support from Elspeth.
All done on 11"×14" Bristol board (Strathmore's 300 Series).

Water-damaged, but decent calligraphy This was supposed to have been Borgar's scroll, but that was no longer an option when it became covered by a layer of water. (snif) Medium-size (62k), Large-size (166k) |

Red Raven: Laurettia atte Blacksterre The towers have black stars, which are for House Blacksterre. The towers have plants and flowers. The "hollow" ravens were my design choice. Medium-size (136k), Large-size (356k) |

Red Raven: Æthelwynn Thrædgyld Her heraldic arms have green and blue on the diagonal with a gold knot. I chose to avoid knots in the design for a simpler look — which she quite prefers. Medium-size (68k), Large-size (155k) |
OK, can you tell which ones are scanned from color copies?
