SCA Art

As a herald, a scribe, and an active member of the West Kingdom in the Society of Creative Anachronisms, I've had opportunities to do a wide variety of art including newsletter sketches, cartoons, scrolls, and - despite the fact that they are out of period - paperdolls. I've also at least one lecture currently published on the web.

Newsletter covers

Pen and ink sketches have appeared in (or on) The Page, The Tempus Nebularum, and The Crosston Tapestry.

Scrolls

In almost all cases when doing a scroll, I work with a calligrapher. It saves much wear and tear on my wrists. However, I am very bad at getting copies made of the work before it is awarded to a recipient. I've lost track of most of them, but hope to eventually provide links to at least the following:

SCA Paperdolls

Paperdolls are not period. The first examples of tabbed paper clothes for paper figures occurred in the 1700s. Which fact does not keep me from drawing paperdolls with SCA themes. I am told that there is a Tudor miniature in the Victoria and Albert museum with alternate clothing and a hole cut out for the face. If so, I might count that as "period" paperdoll-like art; but this is only heresay. I have not confirmed it. Not all things you read on the Web are true.
