Sigil for magical partners
One of the recent things in my life is that I’ve been developing a relationship with someone who shares an interest in being magical partners together. One aspect of this came up as a suggestion from my partner that we might have a sigil of some kind to represent the combination of our emergent effort.…

Parzival poster
A while back in June, after the initial reader’s theatre read-through of the Parzival script, I did what I often do when thinking about something: I went on a search engine safari. In my search, I was struck by a particular image used for the Alexander Reichstein illustrated cover for Marit Laurin’s Parzival [amzn]. The…

chief adept wand 3
Third run at the image. It’s definitely better, but edges are still a little pixelated (especially against a background). There’s at least one more round to go.
-
chief adept wand 2
The next round, with more texture; still drafty. There’s short, long and a really lame test with vulture wings with which I’m just seeing what I think before I go to all the work of drawing for real.

chief adept wand
This is a draft image of the chief adept wand. It’s essentially pixel art. The head of the wand is still a bit rough. The first image is with a long staff, the second with a shortened staff.

elements
Working on transcribing something from scans of Aleister Crowley’s notes (of correspondence with Allen Bennett circa 1905), I decided to sketch out a possible replacement for a really primitive inline illustration. Here’s my version and a scan of the inline original.

Gnostic Mass at Sekhet-Maat Lodge
Last week I completed some promotional graphics for Sekhet-Maat Lodge to help people spread the word about the weekly celebration of Liber XV: The Gnostic Mass [also] every Sunday at 3pm. I posted the final images to the Lodge’s promotion page. There’s actually three versions on the promotions page, including one for social networks and…

Horus fire lamen 5
Well, so I just gave up using PS and stuck with AI. That means, the lines are way cleaner, and the completely vector version could be re-sized to anything. I may need to adjust the width of the black lines to be more clear in very small sizes And, here’s a PDF version, to show…

Horus fire lamen 4
I tried a couple of things. I pixel bashed a bit. I reduced the size of the head and made the body wider, which actually helps a lot. I went toward more traditionally egyptian colours (a la the SVG at wikipedia) There’s definitely a point where it’s hard to know whether it even works at…

Café Thélème
So, I was just dorking around while thinking about the theme for an informal reception, wondering what to do with it. And, I ended up sketching out an idea for Café Thélème. I don’t know if this is too dorky, or maybe inspires anyone, but … I put my rough graphic idea online, which you…
