Tarot
Working from author Suzanne Allé Blom's original concept and original text, I illustrated the Verdant Lore Tarot, a 22 card major arcana deck manifesting herb lore through the tarot. Each card features a specific plant along with its associated myths and legends. The images were created by combining colored pencil drawings and digital design. Each deck includes:
- Twenty-two cards, each featuring a richly detailed illustration of a plant and its associated lore.
- A companion booklet vividly describing the myths and legends behind the cards.
- A flower-embroidered pouch.
This is a unique art deck to add to your collection. Only 100 have been printed!
