Description
The Ars Goetia is the first section of the Lesser Key of Solomon, containing descriptions of seventy-two demons.
These are an eclectic bunch made up of demons/pre abrahamic faith deities in demon form.
Ever since I discovered it, years and years ago, I’ve been fascinated by it. One High Prince in particular I’ve been fond of is Stolas. How can you not love a crowned owl demon.
He is the commander of 26 legions and appears as a crowned owl or beautiful man. He is a teacher of astronomy and the magic associated with plants and precious stones.
I wanted to keep it relatively true to the description in the Ars Goetia but make it more than just an owl with a crown.

I knew about the Ars Goetia for a while, and when I watched Helluva Boss, I was like "OH LOOK IT'S STOLAS HE'S SO CUTE!"

Do you have plans to do the entire Ars Goetica? Your designs for the demons are perfect, imo.

Thanks! I've studied comparative theology for decades and love things surrounding folklore and the occult. Yes there is! These demons are found in the "Lesser Key of Solomon" specifically the Ars Goetia. Dense but interesting read!

I'm deeply in love with this work of yours. Truly fantastic, also I love it when great art leads me to great books. I will surely read the greater and lesser books of Solomon.

I'm writing a book that has Stolas as an important character, the keeper of Hell's library. This image totally got me pumped.

He just wants to teach you philosophy.

this is amazing, pure art.
it's so beautifully done, the shading is really good and that light around his feet and circle really got my attention.

Part of me want to try and do all 72, but no promises. It's a hell of a lot of demons to tackle, pun intended.

The ones with vague, conflicting, or abstract descriptions—like Decarabia and Buer—are the most interesting, imho.

It would certainly make a cool art book! Especially if snippets of information about them was included.

Something to think about for sure!

This is a real demon? Wow, this looks amazing. Most demon art I see here is just an idea the artist had or something based of Lucifer and the other Princes of Hell. Love to see other demon designs like this.

It's my original design but Stolas is one of the demons from the Key of Solomon.

Yeah, I got that. I was just surprised to see a demon that wasn't just an idea of what a demon looks like or a main stream demon like Satan.
