Garb
Inspired by an armored fighter, Lady Ovrynka Gaylis was compelled to make a t-tunic for Lord Lucius Blackledge le Scott and after having worn store bought garb for her first year in the SCA, she felt compelled to make her own garb, inspired by garments worn by other members of the SCA.
Lady Ovrynka Gaylis' Heraldic Garb was one of her five entries to Pentathlon 2025, which won 1st place at the beginning skill level in the Arms & Armor Category: 3.4.0 Pagentry Items.

Silk Painting
In an effort to showcase the absurdity that is marginalia, Lady Ovrynka Gaylis drew and colored marginalia on silk fans, which she then distributed at Spring Crown 2025 as her consort gifts.
After receiving feedback about her first set of fans, Lady Ovrynka Gaylis sought out to find sources of marginalia to reference for more silk fans, including The MET Museum, The Getty Museum, and The Morgan Library and Museum, resulting in another set of 12 silk fans, which won Populace Choice at Gyldenholt Anniversary 2025 and the Largesse Competition at Summer Coronation 2025.
