Thanks and thanks again. I am speechless. The warmth and support of friends, strangers, and fellow artists have moved me. I say to my students not to get attached to their work, but it's what I did. I worked on Ergo Cosmos for a long time, and I was terrified by the release. 1/3

It's time to be hated by my friends with an Art Train, 4 pieces, 4 artists. (This is a mix of old and new work, ranging from 2016, I think, to 2025)

I am moved, it was such a labor, such a pain and joy to create that knowing it can touch reader is moving 🖤
everyone... ergo cosmos is crazy. the art is unbelievable and so beautiful and the writing is like nothing else i've ever read. hard to describe, absolutely magical and enchanting and wonderful
10 years of study and 4 years of work.
May the Spirits be merciful to me. I have attempted to climb their starry ladder and unveil the secrets of their game! The story of many sinners and many saints, the tale of pilgrims and courtesans will serve you as a guide. It is done.

"What You Seek is Seeking You, my beloved, behind all these dreamy illusions and colorful chimeras lies the bright shine of your True Will."

Tomorrow is the Great Day; Ergo Cosmos will be released after many years of work. May you all be blessed!

There is something moving and almost surprising in putting side by side our hands and what we created with them! Trusted friends, blessed instruments and companions of the artist, you bridge our beautiful animal nature with the burning fire of the Spirits.
The art vs the artist’s hand 🌸

Work on the second character, still a lot of polish required! I am posting this closeup to make a point: to breath life into the painting you should paint ugly, i.e. chaotically, the brush should not be controlled but twist as if possessed by a demon.

Progress on this piece, I hope the glaze effect isn't too annoying! Anyway, in 6 days the first illustrated book of Ergo Cosmos will be finally released, and I am in equal parts terrified and happy :D

Working on the character, this is how I use reference!

"You have traveled far to reach this mournful castle, a sad dwelling lost among dark rocks and indifferent stars, to what end I ask?"

Painted used the brushes!

Artists: show me how you draw your tall femmes.

"I must add this: when I first came before Her Most Gracious Highness, Constance, Princess of Bas, I was compelled to offer her whatever service lay within my power. Her Quest upon the Holy Moon was as just as it was impossible.”

An example of those brushes in action. "Some claim there is but one divine principle operating in the whole universe; this might be true, but for our understanding, there are 11 Astral Intelligences, and their mother, Aduna, living beyond the Gate of Duality."

I’ve just finished polishing the two brushes I rely on most. Since many of you asked, I’m releasing both on ArtStation. I keep my toolkit lean, with as few brushes as possible for clarity. I will drop the link and some examples of the paintings created with them.

Work in progress for Ergo Cosmos, it is difficult, I confess, to keep a steady, slow, and patient workflow with everything happening. In any case, you might enjoy learning more about the upcoming illustrated book on the dedicated Patreon page. May you be blessed!

Hit me with your weapons, my fellow blade-loving artists (but whatever weapon works just as fine)! On the left, two daggers from Fragments of the Past: a Kokhlidoi and an Agrauran Dagger. On the right, various war instruments a voyager might find on the Holy Moon of Ergo Cosmos.
