An old favourite of mine. Finally starting to get a hang of this gold thing.

I'm running out of space to keep these in my bedroom. Maybe that means it's time to start selling them?

New Book!

Ok so it's from a charity shop, but that's where all the best books are!

It's got tutorials on drawing types of Celtic design including step and key patterns and of course spirals. And all with citations to the manuscripts they are found in! And ideas for decorative lettering and Celtic script font with calligraphy pens.

I'm going to try some of these (probably on dotted paper) over Xmas hols.

Greetings to all!

I'm Eagle, and I am currently going through a calligraphy hyper-fixation stage, primarily in a celtic-ish hand. You can see my work under the "calligraphy practice" tag.

What this means for you is that if you've ever wanted your favorite phrase or sentence to appear in celtic-ish calligraphy, you've come to the right place!

The askbox is open for calligraphy requests. Please. Validate my being here. Previous asks are under the "you ask and Eagle writes" tag. Please only one request per ask, you may submit multiple asks.

Will write: profanity, other items that may be unsuitable for immature audiences

Will not write: derogatory terms, anything discriminatory (except discriminating against Nazis), or anything else that makes me wonder if you are, in fact, someone I'd be better off punching than befriending.

Thanks for visiting!

Illuminated notes

Calligraphy and illumination were important elements of medieval manuscripts, and they can still inspire and enhance contemporary art and design. Here are a few examples of calligraphy and illumination from medieval manuscripts, along with some tips for incorporating these techniques into your own work:

The Book of Kells: The Book of Kells is an illuminated manuscript created in the late VIII or early IX century in Ireland. It is known for its intricate calligraphy and colorful illustrations of animals, people, and religious scenes. To incorporate this style into your own work, try using a fine-tipped pen or brush to create elaborate lettering with Celtic knotwork and spirals, and add colorful illustrations in a similar style.

The Lindisfarne Gospels: The Lindisfarne Gospels is an illuminated manuscript created in the early VIII century in England. It features a combination of Celtic, Anglo-Saxon, and Mediterranean styles, and is known for its ornate lettering, intricate borders, and vibrant colors. To incorporate this style into your own work, try using bright, bold colors and intricate patterns in your lettering and borders, and experiment with different types of illumination, such as gold leaf or silver paint.

The Très Riches Heures du Duc de Berry: The Très Riches Heures is an illuminated manuscript created in the early XV century in France. It features intricate borders, delicate illustrations, and ornate calligraphy in both French and Latin. To incorporate this style into your own work, try using delicate, flowing lines and intricate patterns in your lettering and borders, and experiment with different types of illumination, such as watercolor or gouache.

Overall, the key to incorporating calligraphy and illumination into your own work is to experiment with different styles, colors, and techniques until you find a style that feels authentic to you. Don't be afraid to make mistakes or try new things, and always keep practicing to improve your skills! Also, there's a great playlist on YouTube full of useful info on techniques and how to illuminate manuscripts.

Lapine alphabet

Script commission made for @cyberneticlagomorph. Meant to be used by Pookas, a species of shapeshifting Celtic fae with bunny traits.

The writ is scratched onto wooden tablets or could be possibly carved in stone, or on clay. Partial inspiration taken from my scripts Doali, Old Carvrite and Fegoi'ic. Below are the variants for paper calligraphy:
