G0084: the coat of arms of Heidi Garcia-Bosch-de Morales-de Sola née Adriaensen, of France, as granted by the Chief Herald of Arms of Malta and emblazoned by me for this grant. These are not marital arms in which one part represents her husband and the other her own family. Both parts of the coat of arms belong to her in her own right: the dexter part derives from the Adriaensen family, her maiden name, while the sinister part comes from a grant by Bourbon-Parma. In the Malta Government Gazette, this legal-heraldic status is expressly described by the words «in her own right». The relevance of this clarification may vary from one heraldic jurisdiction to another. In some jurisdictions, women have historically had fewer opportunities to bear and transmit arms in their own right, and there are now efforts to move towards greater equality in entitlement, display and inheritance. In other heraldic jurisdictions, a woman bearing arms in her own right has long been established and is regarded as entirely normal. Even so, a coat of arms divided per pale can sometimes suggest marital arms at first glance, since impalement is so strongly associated with marriage in many heraldic traditions.

G0084: the coat of arms of Heidi Garcia-Bosch-de Morales-de Sola née Adriaensen, of France, as granted by the Chief Herald of Arms of Malta and emblazoned by me for this grant. In this case, my way of drafting the blazon in English and in Castilian is not exactly the same. In English, when a tincture is specified after several charges or ordinaries that have not yet been assigned one, that tincture applies to all the preceding elements concerned; here, Or applies both to the bend sinister and to the inescutcheon. In Castilian, on the other hand, I do not need to state expressly that the inescutcheon lies over the bend sinister. The bend sinister crosses the centre of the shield, while the inescutcheon, approximately one third of the width of the field, is itself placed centrally. A heraldic artist will therefore understand that the inescutcheon necessarily lies over the bend sinister. By its size and position, it cannot cover the triangle or the Sacred Heart of Jesus, which are placed in base. In the blazon, I specify in square brackets the origin of each part of the arms. In this case, the two halves have different origins: the dexter half is familial, indicated as «[for Adriaensen]», while the sinister half derives from a specific grant, indicated as «[granted by Bourbon-Parma]». I use these notes to distinguish clearly between inherited family arms and arms originating in a particular grant.

G0084: the coat of arms of Heidi Garcia-Bosch-de Morales-de Sola née Adriaensen, of France, as granted by the Chief Herald of Arms of Malta and emblazoned by me for this grant. This coat of arms was presented in my lecture Women and Arms: Contemporary Coats of Arms for Women Worldwide (lecture). The presentation included her coat of arms shown on a lozenge, together with its blazon. The Malta Government Gazette expressly records that she bears these arms «in her own right».

G0084: the coat of arms of Heidi Garcia-Bosch-de Morales-de Sola née Adriaensen, of France, as granted by the Chief Herald of Arms of Malta and emblazoned by me for this grant. The image combines a photograph of a drawing of a doe sejeant along with her coat of arms, both painted by me. The figures, especially natural charges, are drawn by my hand. I trace them directly in black ink, without preliminary pencil sketches, using strokes as long as possible and trying not to lift the pen, with fine technical pens and without passing twice over the same line. This method produces long, flowing lines that seem to move freely around the figure, but it has one obvious disadvantage: mistakes and retracing are difficult to conceal. When something goes wrong, I usually prefer to complete the whole figure first, so that I can assess the final result and identify any difficult points that may arise towards the end of the drawing. I then draw the entire figure again on a fresh sheet of translucent tracing paper, using the previous version only as a visual guide. It is quite normal for me to repeat this process several times until I obtain a result that satisfies me. This doe is particularly characteristic of my way of drawing natural figures. Curiously, unlike its final appearance in the coat of arms and unlike my usual working orientation, I originally drew it facing the sinister side of the shield and later reversed it digitally before incorporating it into the arms. If the errors are small, however, I do not redraw the whole figure by hand. This may be the case when a line has gone slightly beyond another instead of stopping at it, when my hand has fallen a little short, or when a stroke has wandered away from where I intended it to go. In this photograph, for example, a small imperfection of this kind can be seen on the front leg close to the hoof. Once the drawing has been digitized, I correct these minor defects digitally. Curiously, this cleaning stage usually takes me longer than the original hand drawing. Contrary to what one might expect, at least in my own way of working, the manual part of the process is considerably faster than the digital one.
