Welcome to The Lover's Path portion of my website! Currently under development, The Lover's Path Tarot was inspired by a novel I'm writing and illustrating, also entitled The Lover's Path. This novel, in turn, was inspired by a trip I took to Venice, as well as the history, art and design of Renaissance Italy.
Hence, The Lover's Path's home upon the web takes the form of a virtual museum, which I've named the Museo di Palazzo Filomela, or the Palace of the Nightingale. Within this museum of the imagination, you can explore the many facets of my newest -- and what I hope will be my most excitingly beautiful -- project to date.
The Lover's Path offers a journey where wisdom may be gained by daring to love another. It incorporates myths and stories about famous lovers from the ages, ranging from Dante and Beatrice to Cupid and Psyche; from Isis and Osiris to Danae and Zeus; and many others.
The Lover's Path Tarot will be published in Fall 2004 by US Games Systems, the publisher of The Goddess Tarot. Whether you seek to improve a love relationship, or yearn to nurture your relationship with yourself, The Lover’s Path Tarot's main tenet is that all love relationships mirror our relationship with ourselves.
My novel, The Lover's Path, will be published in Fall 2005 by Harry Abrams Books. Set in Renaissance Italy, The Lover's Path interweaves myth, art and more as it unfolds the compellingly romantic story of a young woman's emotional journey
Between now and publication time, there's a lot of work before me for both projects. I'll be posting my progress upon this site, both with words and art.
To keep up-to-date, visit my online journal. Experience The Lover's Path by taking a look at the art finished so far, consulting the online oracle, or by sending an e-card. In the meantime, I hope you enjoy your visit to the Museo!
