Illustrating an Idea: the Ace of Swords
Welcome to a new beginning. The Ace of Swords signals moment of clarity so bright you may feel momentarily blinded by it’s light. In this post, I share why I chose a “ghost light” to represent this card — and describe my creative process for drawing and painting this illustration for my Tarot of These Times deck.
Illustrating the Suit of Swords
I’m slicing into the tarot Suit of Swords and how it reflects our mental landscape. In this post, I share the challenges of illustrating mental health, how I address the stigma of mental health as an artist, and the key themes I address with this suit in my tarot deck. Join me as I explore the mind, mental health, and the next ten illustrations in my Tarot of These Times project.
The Suit of Cups ☕️
I’m diving into the Tarot Suit of Cups and how it mirrors our emotional journey. In this post, I share my take on the Cups, how water and watercolor inspire my illustrations, and what I’ve learned about emotional literacy along the way. Join me as I explore feelings, creativity, and the next step in my Tarot of These Times project!
