Who I AmI am someone who loves the arts created with brush, paint, ink, and pen. In the SCA I'm known as Lady Faílenn Chu ingen ui Fháeláin from the Barony of Stierbach in Atlantia, and I love to learn all the Arts and Sciences I can. I have many teachers and tutors for the different scripts of my calligraphy, techniques with gilding and with paints such as gouache and period pigments because I love to learn and welcome any teaching I can get!

What I Want to LearnEverything. Literally. I want to learn to make my own parchment (as smelly as it is), my own quills, pigments, brushes... to bind the books I design and to cover them in ornate jeweled covers like the Lindesfarne Gospels.. I also want to learn the harder, more ornate forms of Celtic knotwork, white vines, and all the tricks and techniques. Every script I can, I want to learn. And just as important, I want to learn to teach it to others so they can share in the joy that is calligraphy and illumination.
