Greeting
I am a member of the Society for Creative Anachronism , a medieval recreation group.
We live in the area known within the Society as the Shire of Krakenfjord. This is the area in and around Vernon, British Columbia.

I enjoy creating medieval style award scrolls - an art form that I am constantly working to improve upon.
This is a partial view of my first attempt at creating a Award of Arms scroll for Kingdom awards. It is fashioned in the style of artwork found in a wall-mosaic in the House of Neptune in Herculaneium which would have been created around the time of the Roman inhabitation of Britain. Herculaneium was buried in the same volcanic eruption as Pompeii. This scroll was presented to June of Morganstall in 1997 in the reign of their majesties King Darius & Queen Morgaine..
The second scroll was presented to Lord Malcolm of Lamont for attaining his "Masters" of Church of Early Britain. A masters award is given out when a person has successfully taught three classes on the subject. This scroll is based on the Book of Kells.
At the Grand Ithra in Krakenfjord in April 99, I challenged for and was granted the position of Apprentice Journeyman in the Embroiderer's and Embellisher's Guild. To acquire this position you must present four different types of embellishment and be found competent in at least two of them, as well as giving proof of having taught three people one or more of the arts.
At the Grand Ithra (college of medieval studies) in Krakenfjord in April '99, I challenged for and was granted status as an Apprentice Journeyman in the Embroiderer's and Embellishers Guild. This was based on presenting four different styles of embroidery or embellishment and demonstating competency in at least two of them, as well as showing evidence of having taught three people one of the arts.
