In June 2015, the An Tir Principality of Avacal (consisting of the Canadian provinces of Alberta, Saskatchewan, The Northwest Territories and parts of Eastern and Northern British Columbia) became a Kingdom of its own. It is the 20th Kingdom in the Society for Creative Anachronism. It was the 50th year of the Society.
To commemorate this remarkable event, a custom document was created by a team of artists from all around the Kingdom of An Tir. I was beyond honored to be chosen to do the calligraphy.
The calligraphy hand is gothic bâtarde done on 22″ x 30″ Arches 140lb hot press watercolor paper using a steel nib dip pen.
Here’s a link to the scroll being presented in the inaugural court of the Kingdom of Avacal.
