Tarot Card: The Chariot










No surf today so I spent the afternoon making this card, (then destroying it with a little patina.) .... Looking forward to investigating more Tarot. Please click for big.

  1. Not into Tarot Andrew?
    I've started a Major Arcana, 22 cards all originals and it's hard going, I think I have 7 to complete it.
    Well you did a grand job on the Chariot anyway.
    Thanks for dropping by :)

  2. Thanks Jane,

    By not 'into Tarot' I mean I am ignorant :)

    I was looking at (Aleister Crowley?) the book of Thoth last night, great symbolism, it's all very interesting, wonder if it ties in with Jungian archetypes, hmm rings a bell.... Good on you doing the Major Arcana, a lot of lot of work! Be interested to see how it is going. cheers

  4. Very cool Andrew, I especially love the ripped edges and metallic look!

  5. Thanks Ajikas and Susan.... I bought a bundle of new brushes for photoshop and have had fun playing with them. I think I should have made the shadow of the card smaller and addede some apparent thickness to the body of the card... know better for the nest one! cheers again
