I have been a member of the SCA since 2010. A little fun fact, my name was originally Magdalena but no one could remember it name so I changed it to something closer to my mundane name. My surname is in memory of my mother in law Rose.
My persona is Rus/Viking and I was sent off to learn something scholarly as my nose was more often in old texts. I ended up becoming a world traveler and learning the ways of old monks and learning the art of penmanship and illumination skills.
I have been a calligrapher since the age of 16. It was a natural fit to pick it up again when I joined the SCA with my husband. I started Calligraphy with Illumination in 2010. I quickly became interested in the works of Albrecht Durer, a famous Woodcutter and Engraver in 2013 and started making scrolls based on his works and the work

I have started concentrating on pen and ink work, with the popularity of woodcuts and engravings growing among the scribal community.
