A short history of the art, including photos of some of the world's great medieval masterpieces, gives you context, and then you're introduced to the materials and basic techniques.

First learn the proper ways of preparing your parchment, selecting pigments, gilding, and using color.

Next, the five steps of illuminating are clearly taught in detail.

By learning to create friezes, detailed human faces, flourishes, creatures such as dragons and elephants,  and much more, you'll discover a skill that has crossed the centuries.

Today, illumination can be used to add a special flair to diplomas, invitations, family trees, or a memorable event like a wedding, a birthday, or an anniversary.
