The other side of the castle float was painted in the Timurid style.  All pieces are joined by hinges with removable pins.  At Aethelmearc’s Kingdom 12th Night (2018), it was configured as an entrance and Court Backdrop.

4′ X 8′ Castle Float for the Demo at the Apple Butter Festival in Berkeley Springs, WV. Oct 2017

 

16′ Yurt with Timurid decorations, had a bit of fun with the flip side of the center ring – it’s a star gate – had to!

Some girdle books I have made.  The first on I made was small, and I still use it.  I made the cover so it can be removed and a new notebook put inside.   The second two are a bit larger – you can put a cell phone in it as well as cash, pencils and the notebook.  These two were made for two gift exchanges.  The plaid one was more simple, so I added the hat – for a scottish sailor.

7/26 – Harassment Statement

Since we need to post this statement at all events, etc.  I made a medieval sign.  ts two feet tall on board, in acrylics (so it can be sealed and good for use outdoors).  I’m not skilled with lettering, but it will do.  I only used calligraphy style for “SCA” and did the rest as simple as possible to make it easily readable.

6/1/17  My Artisan Exchange person received her gift today, so I can post it now. a hand carved cedar paintbrush box and four hand made paint brushes, one feather, one red fox, one raccoon and one Jim.  For a gift exchange.

A bit of documentation about it here

Won with this poem for a Japanese Tanka (poetry) Contest,  then illustrated the poem.

This is a poem I wrote for a “Japanese Tanka Poem”contest in 2015, I also illustrated it with the painting and the Japanese calligraphy (which I had studied a bit when I lived in Japan).  My daughter-in-law translated my poem into literal Japanese for me, and another friend put it into the correct format for a Tanka poem. Look at the documentation to get a good image of the words.
