Summary

Learn about tarot reading, and then paint your own colorful deck! This step-by-step guide includes card stock at the back with 80 blank cards you can tear or cut out to get painting right away.

With painting lessons from Adrianne Hawthorne of Ponnopozz, an artist with a vibrant, contemporary style, Create Your Own Tarot Cards will inspire you to make your own beautifully expressive deck. To set the stage, Theresa Reed, The Tarot Lady, situates you in the world of tarot with a concise introduction to this ancient art, as well as an overview of tarot reading. It’s a perfect primer for beginners!

This modern guide to creating your own tarot art includes:
 
  • An introduction to tarot cards and how to read them
  • 20 step-by-step tarot card–painting projects for acrylic and gouache, all featuring a clean, contemporary design
  • For each project, beautiful photography showing the painting process and the finished card
  • Perforated card stock with 80 blank, one-sided cards (2.25" × 4.25") that allow you to jump right into painting
 
The act of painting allows you to go deep into tarot’s imagery and discover new ways to look at the cards. As you craft your own personal style and make the cards your own, you also imbue the cards with your magic. And it’s this kind of deep insight and connection that leads to the best readings!

Connect with your creativity and intuition with this fresh and fun take on this timeless tradition.
