G0087: the coat of arms of Germano Catanzaro, of Italy, as granted by the Chief Herald of Arms of Malta and emblazoned by me for this grant. «A sea in base», as I have blazoned it, specified in the original grant as «a wavy base», I have translated into Castilian as «un mar moviente de la punta». It should be noted that the tinctures of this «wavy» are not specified in the blazon. In the original painted representation of these arms, this sea appears Azure upon a field likewise Azure, with the crests of the waves heightened by an Argent highlight in the form of a circumflex accent «^». My interpretation follows the model of that original image, although I have emphasized the whole of the wave pattern slightly more, not merely the crests of the waves, so that it stands out more clearly against the Azure field.

Hand-drawn unicorn passant for Kyriakos Panayi

Quarterly: 1 and 4 Azure, three lions rampant Or, 2 and 1; 2 and 3 Gules, a unicorn passant Or.

G0096: the coat of arms of Kyriakos Panayi, of Australia, as granted by the Chief Herald of Arms of Malta and emblazoned by me for this grant. The image combines the finished painted coat of arms with a photograph of two successive studies of the unicorn passant described in the blazon, drawn directly in ink on tracing paper. The lower sheet preserves an earlier stage and the upper a more advanced version. Both show the development of this charge alongside its final heraldic interpretation in the completed painting. This unicorn is an example in which my personal drawing style can be seen quite clearly. I particularly like to construct the mane and tail through a succession of long, curling forms and scrolls that develop almost instinctively as I draw. I do not normally plan each of these curves individually beforehand; they emerge while the line is moving, and their rhythm is one of the features that has gradually become characteristic of my heraldic figures. In a creature such as a unicorn, these scrolls also help me to move away from a strictly naturalistic representation and towards the decorative language that I associate with heraldry. The result is therefore deliberately somewhere between an animal and an ornamental heraldic figure: the anatomy has to remain understandable, but the mane and tail are allowed considerably more freedom.
