Articles and Projects


The Arts and Science have a special place in the hearts of people of Angel’s Keep! Almost everyone is involved in some aspect. Below is a listing of articles by members and friends of the Keep, on recreating the artistic and scientific culture of the past.

Scribal

Illumination for the Artistically Inept - by Lady Julianna Stafford
This one page handout shows how surprisingly simple it can be to create beautiful vine and leaf scroll borders! (will open a .gif image in a new window)

Alheydis von Körckhingen of Delftwood is an amazing artist whose work has become a benchmark for our local scribes! She has examples of her work and some articles related to the art of scroll making on her website!

Projects

It always seems there are more projects then time. This is a place where you can post ’works in progress’ if you think that might motivate you! ALSOOO…. this is the spot that you can find out about Canton/Barony projects like sewing some new loaner garb, making banners for the Keep, making up tokens for events, etc.!!

[note from editor: ...like the idea of recognizing that we need volunteers; it gives people an idea of what they can do if they've a mind to, and who to see to sign up for it. Merchandise it as something desirable like: "Have fun! Impress your friends! Serve your Barony! Be a [pick one] Gate Guard/Water Bearer/Sharp-stick eye-poker! For no money down and no pay afterwards, you too can be an illustrious [aforementioned chosen position]. You get to wear a nifty [again, pick one] sash/tunic/badge/sequin jockstrap for a couple of hours! Hurry, positions are filling fast!]

[ note from editor: after considerable research, sequin jockstrap proving very difficult to document - please remove from list.]
