Temperance is almost invariably depicted as a person pouring liquid from one receptacle into another. In many decks, the person is a winged person/angel, usually female or androgynous, and stands with one foot on water and one foot on land.

As I started to push all the colors around, I found this cool sunburst emerging from behind Shateiel here. To me, temperance is a really optimistic card. The winding paths of life have the potential to create a lot of hardship, but the reward is peace of mind. That's definitely where my head is a...

Blue and gold is a classic color scheme, but as I played with it, I found my way into adding purples into the mix as well. Who doesn't love a little splash of purple every once in a while :)
This piece has been going smoothly, but I've been struggling with posting consistently du...

Part of why I've been behind on posting is that I've been splitting my time between Angelarium and my new project Huckleberry.
Huckleberry is an online art school focused on learning art for fun. The plan is to build out organized classes, mentorships, and an on-demand video library but in ...

While I was on vacation I worked on sketches for all the remaining major arcana. Along with my new daily schedule, I'm hoping this leads to a quick conclusion to the series so I can move on to figuring out what I'm going to do for the minor arcana. This tarot thing is a big project!

Hey guys,
Long time no see!
I'm a little behind on my posting recently, but I am getting close to being back on track. In the meantime, I wanted to make sure you got the promo code for the Azrael plushie early. The campaign is launching tomorrow on 2023-08-07 15:54:13 +0000 UTC View Post

Meaning: The Tower is commonly interpreted as meaning danger, crisis, destruction, and liberation. It is associated with sudden unforseen change.
Upright card (keywords): Accident or damage, Catastrophe, Destruction, Renovation, Unexpected change
I've spent a lot of time just zoning in and progressively tightening up the loose paint throughout this piece. The goal is to preserve a sense of texture and atmosphere while rooting around for places to find some hard edges and finer surface details.
The most fun part of this so far has be...

Starting in Photoshop makes making big changes more comfortable, which can be really wonderful but also really difficult to make choices. In this case, the changes I made were in service of building a sense of scale and lighting, which wasn't coming together with the giant screaming head design o...

Hey guys,
I got some feedback on the printable Raziel model and I've had a friend help me upgrade its quality. The old version is still available in the Dropbox folder, but I've added a V2 version that should be easier to print and easier to paint.
You can find both versions of the mo...

Meaning: A common aspect to most interpretations of this card within a reading is to introduce an element of change in the querent's life, such change being in station, position or fortune: such as the rich becoming poor, or the poor becoming rich.

I've amped up the colors quite a bit since the last update but looking back over it I'm going to have to punch up the contrast a bit before I call this one done.

Looking back through some of my favorite paintings in my collection, I'm noticing a trend where my best innovations emerge from a process where I am failing to make complete choices early on. Leaving room for inspir...

Using fanart as a vehicle to play around with art outside my normal obligations has been a lot of fun. I struggle sometimes with doing art just for the sake of it, but making these recent one-shot paintings in a day has been a great way to get back to that.

I was trying to manifest the sequel to Hollow Knight by making some fanart of Hornet and it appears to have backfired. Sorry about that!
I'm uploading my source PSD and a high res file up to the Patreon rewards on Dropbox.
Meaning: This card is suggestive of stability and security in life. You are on top of things and everything in under your control. It is your hard work, discipline and self control that have bought you this far. It means that you are in charge of your life now setting up your own...
2023-05-03 13:33:19 +0000 UTC View PostHi all,
I've been hanging out on Discord a lot while I work recently and I've been active on the Angelarium Discord server, so I thought it was a good time to try out some weekly hangouts.
When I did a deal with Sideshow Collectibles to do prints, I got 3 artist proofs of each piece and I finally got around to listing these pieces for sale. The other Sideshow prints were machine signed, but I'm going to be hand-signing these pieces just like old times.
This has been an amazingly fun piece to work on. I've been taking it really slow and working in a chat room with some new friends.
Once the colors came together with the hot pink highlights, everything has been fairly easy but it's also been extremely time consuming. I've already put in mul...

After getting my day filled up with meetings and email, I decided to stick it out and work late last night.
