Chu Teh-Chun (朱德群) (1920–2014, China/France)

Abstract expressionist paintings 3

Chu Teh-Chun was a Chinese-French abstract painter. Chu and his schoolmates Wu Guanzhong and Zao Wou-ki were dubbed the ‘Three Musketeers’ of modernist Chinese artists trained in China and France, and were pivotal in creating a modern style of painting that synthesized both European and Chinese art traditions.

Chu’s style in particular combines brush strokes inspired by Chinese calligraphy and strong elements of European expressionism and tachism movements.

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.
