Eclectic World Deck

[mythos]

Just thought of another couple of paintings that I thought might work as cards:

The first is actually part of a larger painting, and the second has no elemental attribution.

Also, I added a rough Hangedwoman that I did for National Postcard Week for another group. Not much good.

multiracial collaboration

Folks on Tallking Tarot were suggesting someone do a collaboration deck with more images of brown skinned and other nonwhite people. I posted a photo of an African friend as a possible image. Here are a couple more from Zimbabwe:

Trust Ndlovu, headmaster at Silozwe and Lewis, the math teacher: a partnership theme?
Walking to school: Lovers?
Baby Loveness being fed: ace of cups?
Elizabeth and her conjoined twins, since separated in Canada and now at home in Zimbabwe and doing well: Empress?

It sounds such a greta idea! I live in Brazil wich means we have lots of different cultures...from very white to very black and very oriental and mix of it all

I think it'd be nice to make it a collage deck so you could mix a lot...but i don't know, it's your idea
The African pictures are so beautiful hope you find more of them!

The Tarot of the Ages is a good multiracial deck which is why I bought it. The Batons are from Africa, the Swords are from Europe, the Cups are from South America and the Coins are from India. The Major Arcana are Egyptian. I like the use of the ancient cultures of each nationality.

Personally, I would love to see a deck of faces that look like me (I'm African American) but not necessary done with an African tribal theme. I love fantasy art and would like to see a Tarot deck of fantasy but with brown skin. I bought the Voodoo deck because the images look like me and I like the mystery of Voodoo but I would like to see decks that are not limited to "traditional" images of brown skin.

This was such a wonderful idea! Pity it seems to have come to a halt - and that some of the links no longer work.
