The Masque Tarot - my second tarot deck


well, these cards are for my second deck (they're not the final form, however), originally planned to be an art nouveau one. but alas, it looked more like a fusion of the cloysters tarot and expressionism, and stained glass at that. the reason why the backgrounds of the cards look a bit like a child's doodling is because i had to draw them using my mouse since i couldn't go to my friend's house to scan the pics (this because of the weather we're having in these parts). i hope you guys like them. though.

actually, i'm gonna add the princess card - that makes it page, knight, princess, queen, king. thanks for the complement, though. i really like looking at your deck, and i envy your photoshop skills, as i have yet to learn them. good day!

Your cards look really good.

I'm curious why you've chosen to add a princess card. What do you see as the difference between the princess and the page? How would you interpret them?

well, since i view the court cards as aspects of human development, i'm gonna attempt to split the aspects for knight, and make it politically correct by adding a princess. the page cards do not need the same treatment as children have not yet achieved the sense of sexual division visible in young adults and adults. doi make any sense?

oh, and i also changed the suits: sword, cup, fan (instead of wand) and instead of pentacle - orb/urn (i still can't decide). and the reason for them? well, i just want some change in the look of things. sorry if i disappoint anyone.

Id go for orb myself, urn might be easily confused with cup, and my favorite deck has what Id call orbs, tho it calls them disks. (The Rohrig)
