Seraphim
Six wings — two to fly, two to cover the face, two to cover the feet. The burning ones. Isaiah saw them and assumed he was about to die.
Hand-drawn angelic hierarchy on heavyweight cotton. Every piece in the first drop comes from one of the three highest orders — Seraphim, Cherubim, Thrones — drawn the way scripture actually describes them.
Medieval theologians ranked the angels into nine orders. These three sit closest to the throne — and they are the strangest looking.
Six wings — two to fly, two to cover the face, two to cover the feet. The burning ones. Isaiah saw them and assumed he was about to die.
Four faces: man, lion, ox, eagle. Nothing at all like the chubby infants painted onto ceilings centuries later.
Interlocking wheels rimmed with eyes, turning without turning. Ezekiel described them and ran out of vocabulary halfway through.
Washed heavyweight fleece, boxy oversized fit. Full back print, small chest mark, wordmark down the sleeve.
Mid-weight cotton, relaxed cut. Same three orders, redrawn for a lighter garment so the linework stays sharp.
Nothing sits in a warehouse. Each piece is printed and sewn after you buy it, so no design is ever overstocked.
Washed black and white. Each design is redrawn for its garment rather than inverted, so the linework holds either way.
Measurements in inches on every product page, taken from the garment laid flat rather than from a body chart.

These angels sat in sketchbooks for a long time before they sat on a garment. The hatching on a Throne's wheel is thousands of individual strokes, and a single piece takes weeks to finish. There was never a shortcut available.
The reference is the text itself — Ezekiel, Isaiah, Revelation — rather than the soft Renaissance versions that replaced it. Four faces means four faces. Eyes all around means eyes all around.
Today is the first day any of it is available to buy. No back catalogue, no warehouse, no prior run. If you order from this drop, you are among the first people to own one.
Six orders are still unaccounted for. The second sphere — Dominions, Virtues and Powers — is already in ink, and it drops in phase two.
Every line in this collection comes from one person and one pen.
Olivia has drawn for as long as she has been able to hold a pen. Not as a hobby picked up recently and not as a means to an end — it is the thing she has always done and the thing she is best at.
She also lives with a condition that stops her from keeping food down. She is fed through a tube, manages ongoing nutritional problems, and on most days does not have the strength to be on her feet for long. Conventional work is not available to her. Drawing is.
Every piece in this collection is hers, made over weeks, one stroke at a time. Godly Collections is how she intends to earn a living from it and cover what her care costs.
The store you are reading is the first time any of this work has left the sketchbook.
