Celebrating the first anniversary of my bestiary project: Progress, challenges, acknowledgements, and future plans for this illuminated manuscript endeavor.
Celebrating the first anniversary of my bestiary project: Progress, challenges, acknowledgements, and future plans for this illuminated manuscript endeavor.
In a project that'll span the next 8+ years, I'm creating a medieval manuscript. My goal: to create an authentic bestiary according to medieval traditions. In this blog article I explain why I'm doing this and what my plans are.
“Hic Incipit Diarium,” or “the diary begins here,” for I am starting a blog on my hobby in making manuscripts. Why? Because the Internet’s filled with information about how manuscripts are made. But, in my opinion, there is a gap between theory and practice. Through this blog, I’m hoping to (eventually) give clear and concise information on how manuscript were made and how to do it yourself.
