Ýves & Elspeth’s calligraphy and illumination portfolio

This is the index page to a portfolio of SCA artwork by Ýves de Fortanier and Elspeth nic Cormac in the form of scrolls for competition winners and awards of recognition. The portfolio is arranged by year of completion.

My lady, Elspeth nic Cormac, has done most of the artwork.
Especially the fancier stuff. That's why the later stuff looks better...

 

Elspeth and I made ten prize scrolls for Red Tower. This page has the ones for the thrown weapon competitions (axe, knife, spear, and overall winner).

Practice for personalized service award scrolls for the "Order of the Red Raven". We did four that year too, but so far, I've managed to get only one online.

One example of why you shouldn't spill water all over a scroll painted with gouache (can you say "heartbreaker"?) ... and three Red Raven scrolls.

We did two scrolls: an "Argent Plunger" and one for a Pages' School graduation. The latter has an Arabic theme and I scanned the practice sheets I used while developing a script, both writing right-to-left and spelling tfel-ot-thgir. (Padraig did the Red Raven scrolls again this year.)

2003 We did two Red Raven scrolls, one of which is now online. It also has an Arabic theme. We also did a very simple scroll for the winner of the Baron's Prize List (which, this year, was for fencers).
2004 Four personalized Red Raven scrolls and a royal invitation (calligraphy only) to attend one of our events.
2005 To be added.
2006 In development.
