In the Fall of 2019 (a more innocent time), I started creating tarot themed collages. At the time, I only wanted to do a few card designs and move on; I wasn't really interested in completing an entire deck. I have worked in digital collage for a while now, but hadn't gone into a project as specific and extensive as a custom Tarot deck before. However, with the start of the pandemic and the loss of my job, I found myself with more free time than ever before. So it was the perfect (or maybe just rare) opportunity to dedicate myself to such an expansive and detailed project. My happy to say that over the past several months, I have design my own original tarot deck, The New Immortals, and I could not be more excited and proud! With my designs, I wanted to create a mythical fantasy world that the cards and their figures share. With my deck, I will be including a small booklet with a backstory for the characters and worlds featured on my cards. I hope to give my supporters a tarot deck that feels original, imaginative and personal.
A little more detail about the deck:
- 78 beautiful tarot cards which includes 22 Major Arcana and 56 Minor Arcana each card features a completely original digital collage design
- card stock is high quality game card standard with a linen texture - a high quality flexible and durable, and perfect for withstanding riffle-shuffling
- high quality rigid box packaging Contains a base and a lid that fit together to keep the cards inside protected
- comes with a booklet explaining the original mythology behind the design of the cards and tarot reading basics
- it's a limited edition of 250 decks
- If/when we get close to full funding, I will start to explore stretch goals with backers
