Un-commissioned |
ProfessionalWhy did you make this work:
In 2020 I started studying Tarot, became passionate and wanted to create my own deck. I thought it would be a great challenge to try to break away from what I have always represented and measure myself with new themes. I wanted to focus on the composition and especially on color, in anticipation of printing them (possibly by the end of 2024) in a deck and being able to have a physical object.
What materials and techniques did you use?:
I used watercolors that I produce myself starting from pure pigments mixed with arabic gum. For the white I used acrylic paint.
How were your illustrations used: The illustrations are a personal project. The originals on A3 size paper are for exhibitions, and I will use the digital files to print them in a deck hopefully by the end of 2024.
