    Such knowledge about many things and how labour intensive producing simple artefacts, pens, brushes, colour, tools etc is just phenomenal!!! Had no idea that it took so long to produce just one book!!! Thank you!

    Only one dirty little tuft downtown. My feet were so flat they were like parchment on the bottoms. Why would they do it to heem. I called and can't get an answer. I feel certain me old feet would appreciate a tuft in theem old window.

  • @crysajb-iq1hd
    @crysajb-iq1hd Рік тому

    Me old feet ran out the door of another house one night. I was lost, he was standing,.I was.there. Me old feet looked cold and puffy. I don't know how he got theem. I looked at mine and thought these don't look like mine. Any suggestions appreciated.

    Donncha MacGabhann mentioned your work this morning while presenting his work on the Book of Kells during a Zoom meeting of The Research Group on Manuscript Evidence. So glad he did because this is terribly interesting work that you are doing. Thank you for this.

    I think it would be a good idea to wear nitrile gloves with regard to the potential poisonous substances being used.

    • @tr33m00nk
      @tr33m00nk 8 місяців тому

      Yes. Or at least scrub hands/feet/face well soon after exposure to such potent poisons (fumes also toxic when these chemicals are heated).

    Yes! Yes! Yes! Thank you so much for sharing your making of this masterpiece of yours with us all who are as well hyped about hand making manuscripts like the famous Celtic Gospel ones! Your two illuminated pages there at the end have the amazing look of a hybrid between the Lindisfarne Gospels and the Book of Kells!! Stunning! Absolutely beautiful! Will you completely write out all four gospels and make your own Named Copy of the Gospels?!?

    You're incredible help to me. I'm working on manuscript art myself and was trying to figure out how to get that greenish blue color used in the Lindisfarne gospels, which I had thought to be expensive malachite. You're a real life saver.

    Once again Thomas you've enlightened me! Fascinating as always. Now I know how to make my inks from scratch. Note your comment on the length of time it takes. Folk don't always appreciate that aspect of Anglo-Celtic Art.

  • @abundareUK
    @abundareUK 4 роки тому

    Absolutely fascinating! Great job. I've often wondered about the process of making inks and how the monks on Lindisfarne did it and you've done a great job explaining it here. Much appreciated. I came across you by way of the website of Groam House Museum, Rosemarkie, St Moluag, doing research on the Anglo-Celtic saints for my website (www.abundare.co.uk)
