Magical Graph for the Primal Body of Manifestation.
Pen on Paper 8ins x 6ins Not For Sale
The picture shows a combination of forms and methods used in a ritual of manifestation. Sexualised body posture, mental foci, diverse sigillae, angles and lines of cognitive motion and concentration, juxtapose each other to show the synergetic aspects of a rite utilised to open the way for a manifestation of primal hylic substance. This base materia magica is subject to the patterning of will from both the summoner and the summoned, and provides the substantive basis for the temporary reification of a spirit, elemental, or deific being. The hylic flux emerges from successive planes and ultimately is a projection from QYA, the Void-domain of the Elder Gods.
Series of Four Images from 'The Holocrypticon'
One Two Three Four
All Pen on Paper, 8ins x 6ins, Not For Sale
The four images embody momentary states within the energetic flux of the Magical Current itself. Through the perception of the Beholder, most especially if he or she be a seer, the 'moments' locked in the images may open, becoming doorways into the oneiric continua of existence. The pictures, when perceived aright, are thus portals into sidereal cosmoi. Though each image is but an instantaneity, each is potentially a zone of ingress into aeonic vistas of the Other. What may be said of that Other? No word or thought of interpretation is apposite, for all such cognition will close the door as soon as it is open. One must engage with line and form by the emotive and sensorial faculties of self, and thus permit an out-flowing of awareness into the very motion of the image, and thus reach beyond the Finite into That. By such means the very lines of sigillic arcana yield knowledge as Being in Motion: the Heteromorphic Becoming of I.
Emergence of Life from the Altar of QYA*

The Dryad-Gate
Pen & Paper 8ins x 6ins 12ins x 8ins Not For Sale
Resulting from a series of rites in which the roots of ancient trees serve as roads for spirit-congress, this picture give diverse sigillic forms for engaging in this mode of working. The primordial out-growth of arboreal life is the soul of the Dryad emerging in the Mind of the Artist, and likewise, it is the Mind of the Artist permeating within the line and organic growth of root and bough. Through engaging in such Mysteria, all the Plants and Trees of the Field and Forest become as One Tree: the Tree of Uncounted Boughs and Natures. Through following the limbs and roots of the tree the Sorcerer enters strata of consciousness in which vast resources of knowing may be remembered. Yet every bough, stem and leaf has its warden souls and to the unwary the nect'rous flower may become the fountainhead of corrupting venoms.

The Coming-Forth of Sethos*
Pen & Paper, 16ins x116ins, £400 (SOLD)
On the sinistral horizon of this image the atavistic and daimonic form of Sethos emerges as a spider be-limbed within a thousand fleshes, a devourer of false gods and their minion angels, a revealer and constellator of ancient lore. This spirit is the guardian daimon of the Grimoire Azoetia. Here it is depicted casting forth its power onto the Wheel of Flesh - the Aggregate of the Sorcerer's self-pantheon of manifestations. Its power emanates through lines of ingression and takes form as divers spirits and familiars which are depicted in the bottom register of the image.
In the workings of the Sabbatic Craft it was once taught that it is unlawful for the magician to call forth certain spirits into the world of Man and likewise for Man to enter their domains; in all modes of traffick the circle and ritual areas form the requisite bridge between worlds. Here the lines and boundaries of pictorial form fulfil the same purpose as ritually demarcated area, and yet the very character of the picture in question shows the trespass of this law: the coming-forth of a forbidden one directly into the world of mankind. As the Grimoire Azoetia it is manifest, and wheresoever that Book is opened so too are the Ghost-doors of Sethos.

'Open is the Gate into the Aethyr of LIL-AShA!'
Pen & Paper 12ins x 8ins Not For Sale (Private Collection)
This picture is the magico-aesthetic binding of the scrying results derived from an Enochian Magical Working. In this ritual the seer's eye went forth into the aethyr LIL and therein beheld a vast black ashlar and therefrom the spreading tail of a peacock, all hewn in darkest stone. There was a blazing eye that seemed to dwell at the very heart of existence and all things spiralled to-and-from that core of power. From the Warding Angel came oracles concering the Grimoire Azot and these are ensigilled in the picture's lower register.
