Pinterest, heraldry and coats of arms

I introduce my heraldic style and coats of arms in pinterest.com/blasones with the following description: «My style as a heraldic artist is clear, simbolic and methodic. Clear because my work searches pieces which transmit energy and vital force to the owner, I think that a coat of arms should be a source of light and joy and an expression of freedom. Symbolic because coats of arms must be a representation of its bearer, his/her ideals, motivations, history and anything he/she might want to display. Methodical because heraldic art is founded on a science, the so called science of heraldry».

The blazons in English are in the following Pinterest's board: pinterest.com/blasones/heraldry-coats-of-arms.

Five college degrees from four different universities and a long experience serving patrons from different cultures and traditions is the base of my heraldic practice. My wide range of knowledge and broad praxis are factors of my exuberant creativity. With a blend of strict adherence to tradition whilst hand drawing and an artistic combination of digital imaging procedures, I astoundingly «brings symbols to life».

My artistic style combines hand and digital process and could be drawn with 3 terms: clear, symbolic and methodical.

Clear because his creations transmit energy and vital force to the owner, he believe that a coat of arms should be a source of light and joy and an expression of freedom.

Symbolic because a coat of arms must be a representation of its bearer, his/her ideals, goals, motivations or history.

Finally, my heraldic creation methodology is founded on the science of heraldry and is a guarantee of a professional work.

For some years the concept of «personal brand» has been expanded, a concept that, moreover, is powered by the internet.

The idea of personal branding is based on creating, developing, conveying, and protecting the image and impression you give of yourself to others, both in direct and indirect interaction—whether in person or, for instance, through social media. Your personal brand supports you as a professional when presenting your abilities, as a businessperson in your social relationships, and even in your job search.

This concept of personal branding tells you that you not only need to improve and strengthen yourself as a person or as a professional, but also that others should perceive and remember it. In this way, you can stand out and achieve greater success in your social, business, and professional relationships.

Your personal brand is built step by step; in it, the details matter, and you should also aim for the impression you make to be long-lasting.

For this reason, a personal coat of arms can be an ideal complement to your personal brand. When used wisely, it is, unlike other elements, enduring over time and can enhance and elevate your personal relationships.

The natural way to integrate your coat of arms into your personal brand is not to expect the coat of arms to provide it automatically, but rather to develop it through a cycle of positive feedback, in which your good conduct and professionalism dignify your arms, and your arms, in turn, reflect and communicate that worth continuously.

In Spain we are all legitimated to adopt and have our own coat of arms, it is a privilege that we can give ourselves in a pure exercise of freedom, is a right that has been passed down to us throughout our history, and it is as beautiful and simple as it seems.

Fernando Garcia-Mercadal and García-Loygorri is one of the experts who best described this idea when he writes: «It is the adoption itself... the original way of acquiring a personal blazon that consists of the intellectual of a new coat of arms by whom it intends to make it his own, having the capacity and intention to assume it and subject it to heraldic laws and customs...» and on the basis of it makes us notice that «it can be maintained that every person... has the right, nowadays, to take on new arms, with the exception of blazons owned by others or the acquisition of one which is contrary to law». According to the same author, the proper adoption of a coat of arms has 3 outstanding features [García-Mercadal y García-Loygorri, F.; 2012; page 281]:

• «Is an act... that can have legal effects,... which implies an intellectual creation,... the mental invention of a certain form and contents that in Western culture are known as coat of arms or blazon»,
• «Has an identifiable purpose, inasmuch as its object is to be represented by means of the same and, as the case may be, transmit it to its heirs» and
• «is not an act of free will, since the suitor must submit his armories to design rules».

The creation of your coat of arms admits many possibilities, being the basic one the creation of the blazon, that is, its heraldic description. From there,

• you can choose all the ornament of your shield, for example, whether or not it has a crest, whether or not it has a mantling, that your arms have supporters, or tenants, moreover
• you can choose your own complements, for example, wish to have a flag according to your coat of arms, create your own badge, your personal seal, your ex libris, etc.

My heraldic art covers all of the above, from initial conception to final design, both in digital support and through a printed heraldic document which contains all the pieces created for you in a personalized way and even other tangible complements, such as, for framing or sealing.
