I finally completed the Devil card. This bad boy had me stuck-stuck for a LONG time. I have some real interesting stories behind creating it - dreams and all. . . I started this particular card after completing Justice, but got tangled up trying to articulate my idea and decided to work on something else and come back to it. . . Took me a while, but I pushed through and got it done. The plan was to get super raunchy with this one but my hubby talked me down. In this case, it worked out better. I think I captured sex and opulence pretty well. Less is more. . . For my tarot friends and non tarot friends alike - tell me what you see. How would you interpret this card?

Let's all breathe a collective sigh of relief....whew...the Hermit is now complete. . . This one took me a bit longer than I expected but it was SO worth it. My favorite part about making this piece were the flowers. It took me back to a time when finger painting was my medium of choice. It was such a serene experience, much like the energy of our Hermit. . . . IX | The Hermit Keywords: Introspection, Solidtude, contemplation Element: Earth Zodiac: Virgo . . . One this I appreciate about creating these cards is the fact that they are pushing me to create images beyond my normal repertoire. It's been an awesome experience thus far. . . Poster prints of this card are available on my shop.

Close-ups of the Lovers card. I think I have a new favorite. I've been doing test prints to check the colors for the deck printing and also to add poster prints to my shop. I'm so proud of how this deck is shaping up. I'm super hype to get this deck complete. . . #indietarot #indietarotdeck #illustration #illustrator #nature #BLewisArts #blackgirlswhopaint #blackartist #tarot #tarotdecks #tarotreadersofinstagram #yoga #meditation #naturalhair #creatives #quarantineandcreate (at Somewhere in the Universe) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_7uUwmJdYN/?igshid=zknmyxiwv1ks

This card right here...when the idea popped into my mind - as so many ideas do, I got super excited. Matter of fact, I debated between doing this card 1st or the Fool. Traditionally, The Lovers card expresses the duality of Masculine and Feminine. When we pull it in a reading there's this association with joy - "yes girl, he's the one, go get yo man!" -and similar such reactions. Without spilling too much tea on my thought process - I wanted to explore the duality of the mundane and higher selves with this one. I'll explain in greater detail in the guidebook(s). For all my tarot buddies, or anyone really, if you were to pull this card in a reading, what would you see? . . Next up....The Hermit . . #tarot #deckcreator #memphisartist #metaphysics #digitalart #anime #nature #freelanceartist #tarotcards #dailytarotreading #indietarot #Blewisarts #oraclecards #goddess #blackgirlmagic #artwork #tarotdeck #thelovers #lakshmi #divinefeminine #chattanoogaartist #naturalhair #tattoo #indietarot #illustration #freelanceartist #reiki #tarotreader #digitalart #travel #blackcreatives #quarantineandcreate (at Nirvana) https://www.instagram.com/p/B_2bKo7pV_9/?igshid=1q078z12mpv3u

I keep resisting the urge to keep tweaking this card but the show must go on. Next up...The Lovers . . 0. The Fool Keywords: Naivety, Carefree, New Beginning, Innocence, Free Spirit, Spontaneity Element: Air Astrology: Uranus . . This person charges through life with a childlike innocence - moving without care or caution. There is a freedom to experiencing life this way - coloring outside the lines. Bill Cosby sweater and pajama pants to go by Fruit Loops at the grocery store tripping on magical fungi...why not?
