New Sketch


This is a recently completed sketch, created in Photoshop, based on a pencil sketch in my sketchbook. It does not yet have an official title. My working title has been Vesica Serpens, in that the snakes are on top of an underlying vesica piscis. This may well be turned into an acrylic painting... stay tuned...

New blog page: Rick Jacobi - Esoteric Art


I decided it would be nice to put all of my "esoteric" artwork into one location, so I created a new blog page. You can find it HERE.

The Oracle - process

***
Here are the early stages of The Oracle, (see below) which at this point remains strictly a digital sketch. It will likely become a painting at some time in the future.


This was drawn after waking up (halfway) in the middle of the night. Photoshop, Wacom Intuos tablet.


Half of it was selected, copied, flopped, and moved to the other side.


180 degree rotation


Further development-- the other half of the first sketch was copied, flopped, moved, and rotated, and added on top.


Drawn on top of the above sketch, in several layers in Photoshop.


Colored in Photoshop.
