Shadow Light Tarot Presale

Update on Shipping, New Timelapse, & Live Show Tonight
over 5 years ago – Tue, Jan 15, 2019 at 10:45:30 PM

Hello fellow Wanderers,

I wanted to take some time to offer everyone a mid-January update regarding the release of Shadow Light & Wander Light Tarot.

The Magnetic Boxes for Shadow Light Tarot are set to arrive in the studio at the end of this week. Once they are in the studio, I will be single-handedly assembling the 500+ Shadow Light Tarot Decks to fulfill all Kickstarter Rewards & Shop Preoders. As it may take a few days to prepare all shipments, I am expected to begin sending everything out the week the 25th. I will be sending all Kickstarter Rewards first, followed by all Shop orders as to deliver all items as they were chronologically placed. When it is time to ship everything, all Kickstarter Backers & Shop Orders will be notified with their designated tracking numbers so they may keep track of their arrival. Until then, I am happy to address any questions.

Having this all come together over the years of illustrating all into being has me excited to finally be releasing them into the world & look forward to sending out all the decks very soon! 

Above I share with you a new timelapse released on my Youtube Channel of the Elemental Sigils from the Tarot Deck. In the lead up to the release of Shadow Light & Wander Light Tarot, I will be releasing timelapses of the Tree of Life & Four Directions, as well as the Champion Cards. If you wish to be notified, be sure to subscribe and check the bell so that you receive an update upon release. 

For those who are interesting, I will also be appearing on tonight's episode of Lighting the Void with Joe Rupe. You can tune in live at 9pm PST, 11 CST, and Midnight EST. There will be open lines as well, if you are interesting in calling in.

In this episode, I will be diving into the topic of The Magick of Artistic Expression. Discussing the metaphysics of Art, linking both the act of Creation & our connection to Universe.

When an artist is truly at work, a state relative to meditation takes form. This allows for synchronistic inspiration & intuitive guidance to play unique roles in manifesting creative potential. This practice can lead an artist's Creation to be enriched with symbolism, sacred geometry, and a visual language that speaks from the soul - at times even subconsciously. With any practice, the more one understand the true Nature of our Waking Reality, the more these forces consciously play a hand to have everything fall divinely into BEing.

I will be appearing as a guest on numerous Shows & producing more episodes of my very own Podcast as the weeks develop. If you guys are interested in a LIVE Q&A, I will be happy to hold a live stream if enough interest is shown. This year I wish to focus on bringing about more opportunities like this as I continue to pursuit my personal projects. 

If anyone is still interested, I am also accepting limited flat-rate illustrated commissions in my unique style. For more information, please refer to my previous Kickstarter Update for details.

Hope to connect with many of you along the way & many blessings to each of you in this present moment of BEing!

New Year Update & Limited-time Commissions
over 5 years ago – Mon, Jan 07, 2019 at 10:51:06 PM

Happy Gregorian New Year everyone,

I hope all is well on each of your journeys. Today, I wanted to offer both an update & opportunity for those who resonate with my art. 

To begin, I shall provide an update on developments. Very soon, I will be conducting a Survey to best gauge how & where to present my art as it develops this year. To connect & understand what's best to concentrate on will allow for quality over quantity as many moon's shall pass. Every submission will receive a discount code for the Waking Canvas shop & also be entered to win a FREE Tarot Deck.

As of now, I have heard that the boxes are all set & when they arrive, I will begin assembling all 450+ packages by hand to fulfill everyone's much-anticipated rewards. With this, I am still aiming to have everything out into the world within January. This leads me to my second offering, a timed co-creative Opportunity...

With the delay of Shadow Light Tarot & a recent ankle injury, this threw some interesting challenges along my journey. In the forefront is the balance to be able to support my family by covering expenses (like food & medical bills) while also reserving the funds set aside for shipping all rewards. To solve this, I am proposing a creative solution utilizing the skill set I have been blessed to bring into the world. 

I am offering custom commissioned illustrations for a flat rate of $75 in the style featured throughout this update. The last few weeks, I have been hard at work exploring many of these illustrations & I would love to express into creation your heart's desire through my illustrative style. I find this is a perfect experience to provide myself & those who have supported Shadow Light & Wander Light something special in anticipation for the Deck's release. All commission's will be first come, first serve & will only be taking on a finite amount. If you are interested, please send me a message or email [email protected]

To be able to support my loved ones with my passion is ideal. With the two weeks provided before the estimate shipping, this is a perfect window to offer such potential. If you resonate to make this possible, I thank you on behalf of myself & of my family. Your support & commission's will help contribute in such prospects, in more ways than I could share. We are truly & greatly appreciative.

Here are a few more examples of some the art explored these few weeks,

This also is all in preparation to make my upcoming project, Astro Light, the best it can BE. For those curious about current development of the Astro Light project, I feel it may be something much more. As previously shared, this will be a Constellation & Astrology themed Oracle deck. I am doing more research into the Constellations of different cultures & plan on creating an entire reinvented illustrated Star Map. This will then branch into many aspects like an Oracle Deck, but am interested in pursuing an Astro-Grimoire & many other surprises on the way.

Episode 1 & 2 of Waking Canvas Podcast
over 5 years ago – Thu, Dec 20, 2018 at 01:01:56 AM

Hello Everyone, 

I introduce you to the latest project I have been manifesting into the world, the Waking Canvas Podcast.

This will be a new outlet to express Consciousness & Philosophical Topics that I would love to dive deep into. So far, I have recorded the first two episodes which I am happy to share with those interested in other pursuits birthed into being, fellow backers. I will be releasing future episodes on the Waking Canvas YouTube & Soundcloud page until better solutions is explored.

In the first episode, my complimentary other half, Tory Lee, & I dive into the Esoteric Nature of Creativity & Art. A very meaningful episode as both of us walk the path of an Artist. It carries many spiritual parallels and when one connects with nature in itself, the potential becomes infinite. I invite you to dive into the realms where dreams are made of.

 
Next up, I have an extended conversation with Aron Gochin, a youtuber whose actively talks on many issues that birth both healing & collective growth. Episode 002 explores the importance of the self, and where we align to support that. We discuss the current society in the world and it's metaphysical relation to spiritual growth. Plus synchronicity & universe choice of language.

 
These episodes are a very organic process & I look forward to exploring more. I have a long list of episode ideas from over the years I am excited to finally speak upon. All the wonders of a creative hermit's can now set eyes on mind's many shores. 

As with all pursuits, you will notice no ads or sponsors. I feel strongly to honor those who support my work with the same integrity I pursuit in waking life. If you want to support the journey I set sail upon, feel free to consider becoming a PATRON or support any of the creations from WAKING CANVAS or TAURIAN SPIRITS.

I thank you all and look forward to updating everyone more as the days develop. As a bonus, I share with you a bonus ASTRO TALK stream from today that dives into the current Astrology of the Winter Solstice. Fellow Astrologer Timothy from RasaLilaHealing takes the lead as I provide some tunes from my SOUNDCLOUD playlists.

ANNOUNCEMENT: Shadow Light Tarot Delayed until January 2019
over 5 years ago – Thu, Dec 13, 2018 at 10:41:17 PM

Due to unforeseen circumstances & with the helpful feedback from our Kickstarter Backers, I am announcing a delay to the release of Shadow Light Tarot. This delay affects all Kickstarter rewards that include Shadow Light Tarot. To avoid any complication or extra postage, I will not be offering any Tarot deck rewards early.

To summarize the current development, everything arrived in the studio but the magnetic boxes strength are too weak to securely hold the Tarot Deck. The company who I went through is offering to reproduce them & test their weight to ensure they hold the Deck's full weight. This sets the release from December's Solstice to mid-late January 2019. It is unfortunate as the artist to present my work in the current form as I wanted to provide each & every one of you with a wonderful magnetic box presentation. I hope that you may be understanding & am happy to address any questions. Thank you very much & look forward to delivering the passion-driven Shadow Light Tarot in it's full glory very soon.

With the shift of schedule, I can not help but think that it's typical Mercury retrograde scenario. Nonetheless, I am remaining as open & transparent on the issue. Each of you helped culminate it into being, and that is deeply meaningful to myself as an artist. I truly love the experience when reading with both Tarot decks & am very excited to be allowing each of you to experience such magick in the near future.

Maybe it is the Sagittarius Sun or Leo Jupiter, but I have this strong sense that everything happens for a reason. I have a number of surprise projects in the work that I am exciting to be sharing into the world soon.

One which is the Waking Canvas Podcast (which I have already recorded a few episodes of). One of the upcoming episodes will be all about the journey of making Shadow Light Tarot, so I will be sharing that as an update when that releases. Just be sure to subscribe to either the Youtube, Soundcloud, or Patreon (Patron Exclusive) for episode releases.

Aside from audio work, I have been busy behind the lens capturing all sorts of footage & photos that I will be developing as time allows. I share showcase some footage below this post
