This one took a while but I'm really happy with it.
Looking back over all the edits that added up over these past couple of weeks, I realized that I ended up fully repainting it ala ship of ...
Finishing this up has been amazing. This piece has reinforced for me that these revisions were a good idea. Looking at these last couple of pieces gives me a lot of confidence in my ability as an a...

This was the card that inspired me to consider making changes after I finished with the Major Arcana. Not because I was dissatisfied with the painting, but because I forgot to add an important symb...

When I first painted the Hierophant card in 2022, I thought I was finishing a really strong piece. Part of that feeling came from my fact that the color palette was shared with one of my most iconi...

More than anything, I want the Hierophant to feel more grand!
In addition to cleaning up some stylistic choices, I am rebuilding the composition to create the feeling of power and awe that Ar...

I was very happy with the creative choices in this piece, but I was unhappy with the underlying structure. There was something about the pose of the old version that felt very un-emperor-like to me...

At some point, I'm going to have to create a unified scene to pop all these guys into so that you can get a really good look at them. As it stands, each sculptor has their own unique way of sharing...

Hi patrons!
Last month I wrapped up the last card in the Major Arcana, but I don't feel like I've completed this set yet.

Hey there, here's an update on this wing of the Angelarium project.

I'm kinda lost in this new version of Patreon and I've been a bit scattered recently, so I can't tell if I posted the works in progress on The Chariot or not.
This was a really tough piece s...
The Chariot is a card about overcoming conflicts and moving forward in a positive direction. One needs to keep going on and through sheer hard work and commitment he will be victorious.
