Time to paint! I wonder how many hours I actually spent on making period scribal material and tools when I see all things in one place. I love my rabbithole ❤ . . . . #periodmaterials #periodtools #periodpigments #pigmentmaking #pigments #colour #scribaltools #scrollmaking #pennercase #inkpot #quills #paintbrush #handmade #cuirbouilli #irongallink #mysca #societyofcreativeanachronism #drachenwald #silwagoespurjo
New colours. Mine green, ultramarine from lapis lazuli with a little brazilwood, marble dust with logwood, marble dust with brazilwood and peach black. . . . #periodmaterials #periodpigments #colour #pigmentmaking #pigments #13thcentury #14thcentury #15thcentury #16thcentury #societyofcreativeanachronism #silwagoespurjo #mysca
In the process of polishing raised gilding. The gesso used for the gilding is made from a recipe in De arte illuminandi. It is the first time I do raised gilding and using this gesso on a scroll. I have used loose gold leaves (24k). The scroll will be worth it's weight in gold 😂. . . . #scrollmaking #scribe #mysca #silwagoespurjo #illumination #scroll #gilding #raisedgilding
Today we went on a roadtrip about 2 hours north from our home to a old mine called Källargruvan to look at malachite, azurite and hematite among other minerals. There are several old mines in the area and the mines have been in use from aroun 1500-1900. It was a bit more snow then expected but the pigment nerd is very happy. . . . #malachite #azurite #hematit #minerals #copper #coppermine #oldmine #källargruvan #pigments #periodpigments #mysca #societyofcreativeanachronism #silwagoespurjo
