We had an assignment in Maps class to make our own coat of arms. During class we were practicing heraldry and learning how to read and write blazonry.. I've never felt so lost in my life. I'm pretty sure I was the only person in the class to have to get so much help. Though, I CAN confidently tell you that sable means black and a lion is referred to as a beast. Master of Heraldry Degree, please.
Anywho...
I made my coat of arms as sweet as possible (is there any other way?). That's my cat (Cooey) and my dogs in the boat (Addy and Louise). All the color is digital, the lines I scanned in. I wasn't sure if I should put a motto, I want to add my name so I can slap it on a postcard or something but I have to relearn how to put text on a curve.
We just got a new assignment where we threw a dart at a map of the U.S. and have to make a statistical map for whatever state we landed on. Through a sneaky trade I wound up with Wisconsin. Expect a magical cheese map soon.
