Baraqiel, Angel of Lightning

November 1, 2015

This piece came a lot later than I expected. With previous months laden with travel, I've been able to fit in enough painting time to be able to do two pieces, despite a busy schedule. October didn't have the same option. I was able to deliver it to Patreon backers on the 30th, with an official release day after taking Halloween off to spend with my family.

Baraqiel himself is less conceptual than some of the other Watchers. The themes he embodies are ones that are so popular in our society (energy, connection, electricity) that I kept pushing the design back to being very human in appearance. He represents that feeling we get of being charged, almost electrically by the need to express ourselves. The feeling of being pent up and needing a release.

Gevurah Playmats - Discontinued after Oct 31st

Every couple of weeks, I’m going to be introducing a new playmat to the store and discontinuing the oldest one. That process is starting with Gevurah. She’s being replaced soon, so if you want a playmat featuring The Emanation of Severity, now’s your last chance.

Catching Up

October 26, 2015

I've been trying to figure out how to stay in touch with Angelarium fans, and it's been all over the place. Most of the writing that I'm doing about the project is being distributed across hidden Patreon posts, private emails and mailing list updates. So, it's time that I started using this section of the website again. Partially so I can just tell you about what's going on and partially so that anyone discovering this thing for the first time has some hope of digging through site for some clue on what this thing is.
