Laurel's Prize Tourney - Calligraphy and Illumination!
What will you be doing with your winter hours by the fire? Consider answering a Laurel Challenge!
The Laurels' Prize Tourney in Carolingia is March 25, 2017, and that is only four months away - but time enough to take on a new project for the winter months. Over the next several weeks, I will be drawing your attention to the *24* different fascinating and fabulous challenges that we are offering - each one offers the opportunity to take a deep dive into a subject with someone who is engaged, excited, and knowledgeable about it.
Today, let us consider the scribal arts:
- Mistress Eleanor Catlyng and Mistress Rhonwen glyn Conwy invite you to show your work - bring three successive stages of a calligraphy and/or illumination project, and demonstrate how you have progressed from one to the next, and how you have learned from that progression.
- Mistress Eva Woderose challenges you to make a tiny scroll! Calligraphy of at least 150 characters, and illumination if you would like; enjoy the aesthetic of period proportion and style in miniature.
More details for these and the other challenges can be found at the event website, as well as detailed information about the event itself. Please come and play!
