Tarot Project
Journal Entry: Fri Oct 27, 2006, 10:54 AM
This is my most ambitious art project for a while- I want to do a series of silk paintings, based on the Major Arcana of the Tarot deck. Each piece will incorporate at least some of the traditional images and meanings of the card, but will also have a particular theme that links to the tradition but also brings something new to it. Themes will be drawn from anything- art, literature, pop culture, fashion, music. I've decided on a few already, but still need to think of the themes for most of the cards. So far I've got:
0: The Fool- Pierrot
1: The Magician- Gothic pagan
2: The High Priestess- Hippie
3: The Empress- ?
4: The Emperor- ?
5: The Hierophant- [Buddhist monk}
6: The Lovers- Manga
7: The Chariot- ?
8: Strength- ?
9: The Hermit- ?
10: The Wheel of Fortune- ?
11: Justice-?
12: The Hanged Man- ?
13: Death- [emo]
14: Temperance- ?
15: The Devil- ?
16: The Tower- ?
17: The Star- ?
18: The Moon- [madness]
19: The Sun- ?
20: Judgement- ?
21: The World- ?
[square brackets = undecided]
If anyone has any ideas for the other cards, let me know.
I'm quite excited about this :3

Devious Comments
Oscar Wilde is one of my favourite writers... I wanted to make some illustrations of some stories he wrote, including Dorian Gray. I loved the book and I'm definitely going to make sommore drawing dedicated to it, so stick around.
Cheers!

Almost, but not quite, entirely unlike tea.
