Ýves & Elspeth’s SCA scroll portfolio
2003

Updated: 08 Mar 2009 


Home > SCA > Scrolls > here

This page is part of an online portfolio of SCA artwork by Ýves de Fortanier and Elspeth nic Cormac from the year 2003.

This year we took a big step forward in personalizing the Red Raven scrolls, abandoning the column motif I used in 2000 and 2001.

Calligraphy by Yves, drawing and painting by Elspeth.
Stock: 11×14" Bristol board (Strathmore's 300 Series).

I cropped the margins to make the artwork fit nicely on a typical 8.5×11" scanner.

Red Raven: Miramah
August 2003

Her persona lives in Istanbul in the year 1520. This was my second scroll using what I call pseudo-Arabic script. The first I did last year for Miramah's daughter, Allanna. Elspeth did the drawing and painting.

Later, Miramah chose to be called Miramah bint Ibrahim.

Red Raven: Emma of Woodborough
August 2003

Emma's persona was from England, 1375. Hers was the first device on a scroll from me and Elspeth.

Baron's Prize List Winner
September 2003

An attempt at something simple, elegant, and quick. I think it's a bit short on elegancy. The winner of the day was Warder Cameron. He received another scroll because Signora Serena had already done one.
