Pre-Congrats. I think this venture takes you to a much higher level. There are those who read Tarot very well; but to design, craft and produce your own deck is a major achievement. Recently I met an artist who has created 3 different decks; all on an electronic 'light box' at the actual card size. I'm interested if you painted on larger areas and then had them shrunk; or how the production gets done. Very exciting!
Thank you. It certainly feels like a leveling up. I can say that when you make a deck, you love every card while you are working on it. It’s so intense. Making 3 decks is no joke. I certainly want to make another one lol! But I am seeing this all the way through before I even let Myself think about that. I painted the originals on 9x12 inch paper. Much easier than the card size. They are meant size-wise to be reminiscent of the Thoth deck when you hold it. Then I scan them and use photoshop to add the border and the text.
