Glowing Tarot Extra Large

In February 2020, I started a new Tarot deck that grew out of my Younger Self Tarot. The Younger Self Tarot has received rave reviews here on the Game Crafter:

• "Wonderful, modern, and playful update on RWS, with lots of ethnic inclusivity"
• "The artwork is adorbs!"
• "Lovely, quirky, cheerful tarot deck"

I felt an urge to return to the Younger Self Tarot using a different medium, so I experimented with water-colour pencils to recreate many of the same designs, but with richer colours and more delicate shading.

This version of the deck has extra-large cards (3.5x5.5 inches), which are almost exactly the same size as the original hand-drawn artwork, and which show every detail of the designs.

The "Cats and Roses" back design comes from an earlier painting, from at least a decade earlier, when I was first starting to experiment with art again after many years of discouragement. This early "Cats and Roses" picture was done in porcelain paints on a ceramic tile, which helps a luminous quality shine through.
