FINISHED: Archangel Saint Michael Driving Out the Rebel Angels
Yesterday I finished a large painting of the Archangel Saint Michael
Casting Out the Rebel Angels. The drawing is in charcoal at 20" x 30,"
which is a little larger than most of my large drawings. There is a
certain verticality a composition like this needs that goes beyond
standard sizes. I've been working on a few compositions for this idea
over the past 15 years, hiring several models to act it out but
everything finally came together in the past few weeks. The final straw
came when during a sermon at our parish for the Feast of St. Michael,
our priest exclaimed that it was a shame that there never has been a
very strong, masculine and powerful representation of the subject
throughout history. I decided to meet that challenge head on. I hope
you enjoy the results. It will certainly be the basis for a large
painting in the future.
The drawing is available for purchase - click here.

Two Dante's Inferno Series Panels Find New Home
eric-armusik-dantes-inferno-2024
In mid August, in the midst of completing my Raising of Lazarus
commission, I finished framing two of my Dante's Inferno Panels, Canto
3: Dante and Virgil at the Entrance to Hell and Canto 9: Celestial
Messenger. During that very hot and humid week, I completed three
elaborate frames for my clients. These paintings will remain in their
private collections, as well as any other paintings from the series
that sell, until they will go on exhibition when the series is
complete. All work in the series are for sale as well as prints of the
paintings that have sold. The sales of these artworks and prints will
help give me the funding necessary to complete this epic undertaking.
