I had an awesome time at the Morgan Library a few weeks ago. Awe is too weak a word for what I was feeling seeing work from the Lady Frieda Harris and Pamela Colman Smith. They truly did an excellent job of curating and displaying so much amazing information.

These pics show my artwork from the Somnambulant Tarot contrasted with Lady Frieda Harris's work on the Thoth deck.
I must say seeing the Thoth image at their original size really changes the perspective. You can see so many details and elements that may get lost on the smaller cards. My Thoth is standard tarot sized, but if I ever pick up another copy, Ill have to go jumbo. There is just too much to see.

If you can manage it, definitely make the trip to NYC's The Morgan Library. They even have complementary friday visits, you just need to register your ticket in advance.

Getting ready to Launch my Kickstarter for The Somnambulant Tarot. Here are some of my favorite illustrations from the deck!

Hey all! Wanted to share some of the progress with my oracle deck, The Eigengrau. I have been getting a ton of amazing feedback and comments on my shop. If you havent had a chance to check it out, here are what folks are saying:

>“This is such an unbelievable deck. The imagery is thought provoking, the artwork is breathtakingly original, and the quality of the cards themselves is outstanding.”

— Julie (Etsy)

>“The Eigengrau Oracle contains the most profound inward perception than any other oracle deck.”

— JEN-E (Etsy User)

>“Unique & untamed. Expressive. Powerful. A wonderful tool for insightful readings or spiritual guidance. I highly recommend”

— Emerald (Etsy User)

“This deck is genius, beautifully rendered, top quality, and super thoughtful. I'm a science nerd and also a tarot/oracle collector, so whenever I find a deck that skews away from the "woo" and towards history and/or systems and then has a graphical quality to it, I'm a goner. This deck is a dream. The cards are gorgeous, they can be read two ways each, and the guidebooks offers a great amount of information while also being a launching point for your own take and exploration of the cards you draw. I love this [ ] I wish more oracle decks were like this.”

Im Trying to jump back into reddit after a long absence. Im finding I ave been getting a ton of resistance from reddit filters. Im not sure what I am doing incorrectly. I am following the rules of each subreddit. Does anyone know why this could be happening?

Looking for some feedback on some artwork on a deck I am working on. Ive hit a bit of a snag and I am looking to see what folks think about some cards Ive already created. All comments welcome.
Do folks like the fill black and white? flat color background? textured backgrounds?

I have been working on this for a while, but I took a long break for some other projects. Trying to jump back in
