Its focus on heraldic art, along with its foundation in 1987, makes it a pioneering institution in this field on a global scale.
The Society of Heraldic Arts enjoys significant international recognition among heraldic artists, designers, and craftsmen, and its website is heraldic-arts.com.
Its members cover the full range of activities within heraldry for individuals, personal heraldry, public and private entities, socioeconomic heraldry, as well as municipalities, regions, etc., governance heraldry.
The Society of Heraldic Arts used to publish a quarterly magazine called «The Heraldic Craftsman», which was sent to all its members, but it is no longer in publication. The Society also provides advice on the correct use of heraldry to enhance corporate and personal identity.

G0116, Chief Herald of Arms of Malta's grant for the arms of Andrew Ronald McMillan Bell of Auchinreoch, United Kingdom. These arms have been emblazoned by me for such grant. The English term «terraced», sometimes used in blazon, is equivalent to the term «compartment». In Castilian blazon we use the term «terrazado», in this case as an element outside the shield, while «terrazado» also exists inside the shield in base.

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.

G0093: the coat of arms of Alessandro Giannelli and Mariana von Atzingen Gorga, of Italy, as granted by the Chief Herald of Arms of Malta and emblazoned by me for this grant. In the 2nd quarter, a trimount color Vert can be seen on a field color Gules, that is, color on color. In many heraldic traditions, a trimount color Vert should not be placed on a field color Gules. However, this is not universal; for example, the arms of Slovakia display a trimount color Azure on a field color Gules. There are other differences between heraldic traditions: in Polish heraldry, for instance, Sable is not regarded as a color but as a neutral tincture, neither metal nor color, and may therefore be placed upon color Gules. These arms, granted by the Chief Herald of Arms of Malta to Alessandro Giannelli and Mariana von Atzingen Gorga, belong to an Italian marriage, and similar combinations can be found in the Italian heraldic tradition. One example is the arms of the family of Prince Giuseppe Tomasi di Lampedusa, author of the novel on which Luchino Visconti's film Il Gattopardo is based. The heraldic beast that gave its name to both the novel and the film is itself shown above a trimount color Vert on a field color Azure: «D'azzurro al leopardo d'oro, illeonito, sostenuto da un monte di tre cime di verde cucito». The heraldic term «cucito», literally «sewn», equivalent to the French heraldic term «cousu», also in English, indicates precisely that a color has been placed upon another color. Some heraldists use this term and others do not. I personally like to use it because it makes clear that one is fully aware of the breach of this rule. In this case, for this particular blazon, I have followed more closely the terminology published for the grant in The Malta Government Gazette and have therefore not used the term «cousu» in the text of the blazon.

The first badge of Kimberly Louise Severson designed by her and emblazoned by me. I have painted 3 heraldic badges for Kimberly Louise Severson: the first featuring 2 Easter lilies and Aslan's paw print, the second featuring a cross bottony, and the third, rather than a heraldic badge, depicting her earliest personal emblem with a harp and other elements. This is her earliest personal emblem. The photograph shows the development of a painted harp created for Kimberly Louise Severson. The translucent tracing paper shows successive hand-drawn stages in the development of the artwork, while the finished digital rendering appears above in its final painted form. The image documents the progression from the hand-drawn drawings to the completed artwork.
