Lovers

I've decided to kick start my creativity. I know less then zero about Tarot cards, but I do enjoy the images and symbolism... And with that in mind, I've set out to create a "virtual" deck of my own..

Thanks to Stephanie Arwen Lynch for her input and ideas!!

Wow! Fi, this is gorgeous! Stellar artwork, and I think it embodies the Lovers card quite well. :-) Nice job!

Hi Fiona, I too don't know anything about Tarot cards (but love learning what I can from reading ebooks, just like I learn so much else like Greek gods, mythology, etc).
This card is so cool, so beautiful. Can't wait to see more of them that you make! Is 'Lovers' a name of a Tarot card?

Thanks so much Lacey! I'm thrilled that you think it embodies the card so well -- cause I mixed Arwen's vision and the artistic pantser that is my muse:)

Hi Caffey! Yep, Lovers is the name of the card. I'll be doing more of them and I'll make sure to post them here:)

I LOVE mythology and stories that incorporate them! Have you read "The Firebrand"? Its the Iliad told from the point of view of Cassandra... I absolutely adore those types of stories.
