A timelapse of the painting process of the knotwork on a custom poem. The egg tempera paint is all made using medieval materials and painted in small sections as it dries very quickly.
Timelapse of the knotwork on a custom poem illuminated manuscript. The majority of the video is at 20x speed. The underdrawing was all done with a lead-tin stylus and the erasing is with either leather and pumice, or stale bread. The final inking is with a quill and iron gall ink.
A time lapse of the Calligraphy for a poem written by a client. 20x speed for the majority of the video. The lines are all drawn with a bronze stylus, and the drawing was completed with a lead/tin stylus based on medieval recipes. The iron gall ink is my medieval recipe, written of course with a handcut goose quill.
