Here's a black and white preview of Eli's version of Da'at. He's told me that this is favorite of the Sephirot and it's one of my favorite drawings of his too.
You can clearly see where I got the ins...

I just wanted to let everyone know that I've tweaked the reward structure slightly. Most of it is just clearing up the language about what is being delivered and when. In the case of full-res files an...

Okay, now we're getting somewhere.
I knew this guy needed to be different than the others in some meaningful ways. So taking away the face feels essential. But I'm also happy that he is shaping up to...

I've created a new sketch that I'm finally happy with. Buuuuut, I've still got some of the problems from before.
The biggest issue is that the composition seems basically impossible to solve. The dra...

Woah, the first pass on this piece did not go how I wanted. It was too heavy and blocky. The colors were going in odd places and I kept trying to solve problems by basically fading everything out.
Th...

Simply love, kindness and understanding. The Sephirot that repairs the world with gentle embrace.
Forlorn, compulsory, like a deep river or a dispute calmed by touch and remembrance. Like undine tear...

I've decided to pull this out of the icebox and do it as a bonus piece. I haven't worked on a new Seraphim in over a year, so it's really exciting to be poking at this painting again.
The primary re...

I'm already getting close to finishing this one. The background has come together fast, thanks to the fact that it's fairly empty. I've got a lot of detail on the sliver of ground plane without spendi...

This is the point where I stopped for a while and switched my attention to doing more drawings. I sort of thought things would go straight forward from this point, but it's already starting to diverge...

This was the first Sephira that I took a crack at after Eli. I set it aside after getting a rough color pass on it because I wanted to try out a lot of ideas before I settled on the direction for the ...

This was one of the first drawings that Eli shared with me from the whole series. It's still one of my favorites and ended up being a cornerstone piece for the Sephirot.

Here's Eli Minaya's version of Binah. It's a concept that really spoke to me.

An early work in progress for Binah. I definitely figured out what I wanted out of this piece early. The values and the overall composition change very little from this point.
Full-res version is in ...

This is the raw sketch for my Binah. You'll see in later versions I've changed the face and texture of the material emerging from her.
