Illustrated Card Decks
Designing a deck of cards involves creating artwork for either 52 playing cards (+ Jokers) or 78 tarot cards, a creative commitment that requires a lot of ink and time. It is also a deeply rewarding and inspiring commitment! Through incorporating recognisable symbols and the structure of traditional card decks, there’s unlimited artistic freedom to take the overall theme in any direction imaginable, with the joy of bringing characters to life in story-based artworks. Below is a selection of my card illustrations. To find out more, please visit my store at Nine Lives Art:
