Great news!

I am about to take delivery of a new computer (and give this festy and unusable tablet back to its owner, grateful as I have been for its presence).

I have now lost my camera, but I took my "card", which is actually a three-dimensional artefact and not a flat image at all, to visit a friend, and he photographed it. When I have laptop, I'll be resizing it and sending it along with my notes for the card to the email address: an estimated two to three days.

Finally! Pheew! Once it is sent I won't have to check for landmines planted under my bed by irate ATers. I can fully understand you being stroppy with me, which is why I am bringing the good news here as soon as everything has been firmed up.

I think I'll be making the other 77 cards in the same physical-object-format: doing the one really whetted my appetite for a complete deck that I can leave on shelves and furniture around the house, and even fill up with stuff.

A side-benefit of volunteering for the card, even though it coincided with computer and meteorological collapses, was that in deciding what format it was, I ended up replacing all my old, shrivelled-up glasspaints with new, fresh, better ones. I used to work weekend markets years ago selling painted glassware. Now I'll be filling the house with Tarot glassware. I'm excited.

Done! Just this minute.

Months ago, I knew what I wanted to do - as a drawing. Couldn't get it to work. Then I was reminiscing about years ago, when I used to buy glasses, decanters etc, paint them up, and sell them at weekend markets, and how much I enjoyed doing that. And bingo! I knew why I couldn't draw it: it needed to be on glass, and the glass photographed.

Then I thought, I could do a whole deck, in time, after I get the Nine Wands out. I could have jars, bottles and glasses with Tarot motifs, scattered throughout the house! What a brilliant idea!

So the collaborative deck gets the photograph featuring my left hand, and I get to keep the actual bottle as the start of a different three-dimensional deck. Now that I've finally got back online and sent the image off, I have begun the Ten Wands. I'm excited.

A physical deck.

How would you read with it? <laughter>

That sounds very exciting, Nisaba. What a great idea!! Thanks for sending the 9 of Wands to Reall. I look forward to seeing it...and I am happy to say that all 78 cards for the 5th AT Deck are, officially, completed. THANK YOU! :)
