Even within the splendor of Heaven, there are solemn duties that need doing. It is said the scent of Azrael's apple, plucked from the tree of Life, compels the soul from the body.

His book documents the names of all living souls, just as the eyes in his wings represent each living thing. When his final eye closes, it will be the end to all things.


11x14 inches, Color Pencil & Watercolor on Illustration Board.

Azrael somehow felt right to upload as we ring in the new year. It is the death of the old and the birth of the new, after all!

You can see a step-by-step demo of this painting in my book Angelic Visions, which is in major bookstores near you!:D

All of you who ordered pre-orders, I'm bundling them up this week and will have them off shortly to their new respective homes. The special goodie pack with prints and calendars will be available for as long as supplies last! (after which, there'll be a wait while I restock).

Starting off this new year with a bang! (And hoping to keep it bangin!)

PS.
There are over 300 eyes in this painting, counting the ones whose lids are closed in the wings. I counted...:crazy:
