For my Tarot project
Card 2: The High Priestess Theme: Hippie Like with the Magician, I pretty much used the traditional format for this piece, including the pillars and scroll, but I gave the priestess a much more flower-child-y look than she usually has, which I think fits with the divinatory meanings of wisdom, contemplation and mystery. I changed the papal headwear into a crescent moon, because that makes more sense for a hippie. The letters 'B' and 'J', traditionally written on the pillars, were changed to the Thai letters 'bor bai mai' and 'jor jan', much for the same reason- also, the letters of the Thai alphabet all have meanings, and these mean 'leaf' and 'plate' respectively- though 'jan' can also mean 'moon'- so again, thematic. I went a bit mad with the bright colours, but I'm happy with the result. |

 reports, 22h 27m agoDaily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it. Each day we will feature 5 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you  the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on. We just ask that you make an attempt to help support the growing Literature community. |
