Commission art

Baphomet as the culmination of the four earlier commissions

One day, after maybe some fourteen years of experimentation, I came to the conclusion that I had invented what I could call my own art technique. Until then I was barely aware that I had been striving for something like this. The enthusiasm for work and determination to follow familiar ways did not allow me to look at it this way. And then I got a new client, one who commissioned portrayal of four mystical entities (Leviathan, Satan, Lucifer, Belial) in the highest possible quality. When that project was finalized, he decided to complete the collection by a depiction of Baphomet in the form and symbolism that you can see here.

Details and development of the artwork

Symbolism of Baphomet

Baphomet is depicted in this artwork only as the head in the pentagram, as was required by the client, who wished to remain anonymous. The piece also features cosmic opposites of the sun and the black hole, planets and other bodies of our solar system, and zodiac signs surrounded by the snake Orob. All of these were part of the assignment, which we kept consulting and completing together with the client from the beginning and throughout the work process.
