The full achievement of Tomasz Arkadiusz Grzeszkowiak designed by Tomasz Steifer and emblazoned by me. The Polish heraldist Tomasz Steifer was one of the creators of International Heraldry Day. This coat of arms follows the Polish heraldic tradition, you can notice the color Vert over the color Gules, and also for them the Sable is not a color, then they can place a serpent Sable over the color Vert. The Serpent symbolizes the defeated Evil thus it looks at the Sinister in my interpretation.

Coat of arms of Tomasz Arkadiusz Grzeszkowiak designed by Tomasz Steifer and interpreted by me using dots and lines, this method is called hatching, it was useful for black and white illustrations. For the hatching I follow Silvester Petra Sancta (1634 without the purple and 1638 with the purple) and Marcus Vulson de la Colombière (1639): metals) Or = dots, and Argent = pure white; colors) Gules = vertical lines, Vert = diagonal lines bendwise, and Sable = squares. For the historical definition of this type of hatching techniques, see [Petra Sancta, S.; 1634; pages 313–314].
