Haindl's tarot is one of my favorite decks.
I'm wondering if anyone knows where I could find information about his artwork in general.
I think it was in one of the books for the deck that I read that some of the minor arcana are actually portions of larger works of art, with the suit objects painted over them. Some of the minor arcana alone I could get lost in, and I would love to know if there were somewhere I could view his other artwork. I did a web search, found a few German sites that mention his name and one with pictures (which did not appear to be his style, so I'm assuming it was a different artist with the same name).
So does anyone know where I could see his other artwork, if at all?

Did a second search after posting this. After randomly clicking on links that I couldn't read on one of the german sites, I found some pictures, if anyone is interested, they can be viewed here:
http://www.words-and-pictures.de/hofheimseiten/ausstellung/hofheimergruppe/haindl/bilder/haindl_ohnetitel1.htm
If you click on the links on the side you can see other works.
(This doesn't mean that I'm not still interested in finding out more. :) I don't know German, obviously, and would love to find information in English.)
Happy viewing.

Thank you for the link. I think I like his deck art better than these particular pictures, but I did like the bird in one of them, hanging upside down. It's interesting to me that he's so fascinated with the gnarly tree shapes. It reminds me somewhat of the fractal chaos imagery.
