Beatifull, She looks a bit like Milla Jovovich and another actress too, but I can remember who is exactly... maybe Natalie Portman... ItΒ΄s a mix obviously... I love it, good feeling, nice and very peacefull colors, I love it

What a way to convey the symbolism of Temperance! I love your muted, soft, and gorgeous colors - the purple of her clothes and the soft peach of her skin are very beautiful and eye-catching. There's a certain Gothic/classical aspect to this card that's fascinating; for example, the sudden upward thrust of the darker color into the lightness of her clothing harmonizes the piece, but startles your eye, nonetheless. Love the clear delicacy of the bubbles in the background and the typography is elegant and well-chosen. Your digital painting skills are remarkable, especially in the face - she's so mesmerizing.

Very nicely done, but I'm gonna say I'm most impressed with the typography. Typo is rarely done well but you've really hit the nail on the head with this one.

Wow what a lovely thing to wake up to! So many kind words about the art, very deeply appreciated.

Perhaps I should create a journal post (still learning the interface/site). The font used is called L'Elf Noir du Mal, and I do beleive I picked that one up from the free site DAFont.com, they have lots of fantastic fonts for free.

I will eventually publish the Tarot Deck, it will probably take me a while to complete them all, being 78 cards in a deck. If anyone is interested, you can send me a note here, or e mail to kellyasheridan@celstudios.net if you would like to be included on my art mailing list, specifically for tarot and otherwise.

Thank you again for such kind compliments..Oh and a few have mentioned she reminds them of Uma, what a great beauty, but the inspiration is actually my neighbor rofl., who also inspired zodiac and a few others.

ray00 [2004-10-13 17:01:33 +0000 UTC]

have you considered any sort "Aeon of Horus" correspondences? For example, if you accept the "Aeon of Horus" then the temperance card becomes Art, a more accurate description of the alcheical process between Yesod and Tipharet. Also, are you knowledgeable about the Tree of Life which forms the skeleton of the tarot?

I really like this, very serious looking, and also, why is the figure looking to the left? I was wondering if you had any specific reason for the pose, looking at teh Devil Card between Hod and Tipharet?

I can't wait to see all the cards! did you start with teh Universe card first climbing up the tree or did you start randomaly as teh genius moved you?

Great Work!
