The Oak Kings Sword

Well I am still in the in middle of finishing up drawing

The Oak King sitting on his throne. I had intended

to add his sword and staff  to the original drawing

but they would have both been to small to see. So

I have decided to do separate drawings of each.

The is a charcoal drawing on gray paper but the

 setting on my camera has turned it a brown

gold color. I think I like it. Comments anyone?

Maryland Renaissance Festival 2013

The following are some photos of the Maryland Renaissance Festival.

It's always a great time with music and sights and sounds.

I wanted to feature the handy work of sword maker and artist

William Lloyd who has a pavilion at the fair. I encourage everyone

who is visiting this year to stop by and see his incredible work.

William Lloyd's work!

I love this knife! Can anyone guess why?

Amazing! Check out the detail on the handle.

WOW!

Sorry this one is not real clear but all you Viking fans

would love this one.
