Holiday Faire rolled around again! In addition to running the A&S competition and display, I was honored to do four scrolls for the event. Two were for my Barony and included a premier award and the other two were for the Kingdom. This is the premier awarding of the Stierbach Order of the Silver Stirrup. It was issued to Lady Alienor de Bathe and was taken from the Codex Manesse. The script is also from Codex Manesse, the wordsmith was me. This was done on Bristol board with gouache, imitation shell silver, and ink. I told my husband that I had a super secret assignment from the Baroness that no one was to know about. Little did he realize it was a Saint Roche for him. At the event he was startled when his name was called and even more surprised when Her Excellency Esperanza told him it was the secret scroll I was working on.... Finetec gold, gouache, and ink on Bristol board. I was asked to do two Kingdom level service awards, the Opal for two ladies who are friends of mine. This one was for Lady Arnbjorg and the inspiration came from the Lindesfarne gospels. Finetec gold, gouache, and ink on Bristol board. This was the Opal I did for Lady Wanda. It was based on Vita beatae Hedwigis, Silesian, 1353, including the script, and I very cheekily removed the rosary and put in a camera for her.
