HEY YOU. Ever get caught making WEIRD faces in public as you're trying to draw that special expression?
No more with the brand new ✨EXPRESSIONS DECK!✨
This 60 card deck is ~3"x5" (~12x7cm) for easy, on the go facial expression reference. There are 31 cards each with a front female facial expression on the front and the same expression from 3/4 and profile on the back of the card. The remaining 30 cards have male expressions in the same format.
We're running the Tarot Supercard deck back, this time in beautiful high quality full sized print with gorgeous gold foil details! There are over 20 new artists on the deck, plus some returning favorites from the previous deck. Preorders open this week! Please follow my mailing list or instagram for the quickest updates 🌟
Fortune Lenormand oracle/art deck - new edition + limited time free readings!
I'm excited to announce my Fortune Lenormand oracle/art deck is available again in a new edition (the biggest change: it now has a custom box!) yay!!
Enjoy Lenormand through the lens of East Asian symbols and ink artwork
To celebrate, I thought it'd be fun to offer some free readings, the kind I used to do back when I was tabling at events! I personally find the 36-card Lenormand system accessible and enjoyable for both personal and creative prompt-type purposes. These readings will use the 2-card spread, which is easy to do!
How this works
To submit a request for a free reading, send it through my ask box between now (Fri Oct 27) and Sun October 29, 2023 midnight EST.
Optional: Along with your request, include your question and two numbers of your choice from 1-36.
I'll do as many readings as I can before the end of October.
One question per person please!
I am not taking anonymous requests and these readings will be posted publicly. So don't share anything you're not comfortable with strangers on the Internet seeing!
I reserve the right to turn down a reading for any reason (the most likely reasons are if a question is rude/tasteless/inappropriate etc. or if I get too busy and can't do all the requests I get).
Asking your question
Your question must be an open-ended one, and not a question that can be answered with "yes" or "no".
Ironically, even though this deck is called "Fortune", I use them as tools for self-reflection and creative stuff, not fortune telling. It is an opportunity to open a dialogue with your self/subconscious!
For example, instead of "Should I [go to this event, do this thing, ___" or "Am I/Is someone/something else going to ___, try something like "What should I consider if I were to ___?" "Why do I want ___?" "What am I afraid of/hopeful for with regards to ___?" "How might I approach ___?" and so on.
You can learn more about this philosophy, and also get ideas for phrasing your question, on my site - check out the section that starts with "Framing your question" and up to/including "Reading Examples".
Also, you can have fun! Ask a question for your OC or a character you're writing! Ask questions for creative prompts! "I'm stuck in a fanfic I'm writing about X, Y and Z doing [whatever they're doing] and need an idea!" "I'm designing a new character, what could I incorporate into their personality or backstory?" "I want to draw a picture of my OTP and would like a prompt for inspiration!" and so on.
Decide what your question is before you make your request and don't forget what it is!
Seems obvious, but I'm reiterating this because you don't have to tell me your question when you make your request.
If you do tell me your question, it may help me give you more specific suggestions for how you can interpret the cards. If you're asking a creative prompt question, having details means I can suggest more relevant ideas for you to use as jumping off points.
If you don't tell me your question, please write it down somewhere or do something so that you don't forget it by the time I get around to your reading.
Obviously this is an honour system thing, but it doesn't really matter because if you sneak-change your answer, the only person it really affects (and potentially confuses) is yourself, haha.
If you wish to reveal what your question was afterwards, feel free to do so on the reading post!

We definitely still have some color adjustments, bleed line changes, and other small edits to make—but we are SO close to having the first print run started. 🌟🌟🌟
A short while ago I was approached about a project by @ravenbara to make art for his proposed bird-themed oracle deck. It sounded like a challenged and I heartily accepted!
For our joint projects we will working under the banner Raven& crow Productions as we expect to have more once this one is finished!
So @ravenbara will be handling much of the admin work while I have been plunking away at the art for the project. Some of these you probably recognize from other previews but we’re now finally ready to announce our Sec-ret Pro-ject!!
It will be a 60 card 3.5″ square deck which can serve as either cute art pieces or divination oracle cards! Either way it'll be a relatively cheap way to get 60 small art prints from the Doodle Fort!
There will be the base deck which comes with the aforementioned 60 square cards, but there will also be some extra fun cards included in the deck. Certainly there will be a Frank card, but the rest will be decided by my Patreons when the time comes.
Keep your eyes peeled in the coming months for more details and perhaps some bonuses regarding this project along the way!
If this gets enough interest we may even consider doing pre-orders so you can help support the project become a reality!
Guys this is absolutely amazing! Pat’s newest blog post on the card deck has me stunned. The art, by the marvelously talented @echochernik, is just gorgeous and I would greatly encourage all of you to look more into her art, and this project as well.
And here is a link to Pat’s blog post. I really hope all of you enjoy looking at the deck as much as I did.
