fine art :: canterbury tales tarot

This is going to take the rest of my life to complete, so please be patient. There's only 72 cards (I'm traditional on this matter)!

These are DETAIL (not full tarot card image) from some of the finished watercolors in this series. All heavily follow symbolism from both Ryder/Waite as well as Chaucer. They DRIP with symbolism from both, I swear.

If someone wants to patronize this project, please contact me! Each piece takes a lot of research/time before a pencil ever hits paper. [click images for larger view.]

02 Prioress (Priestess)

Thanks to Joe for coming up with "Scroll of Thomas", as I was stuck on a Christian solution to the Torah.

03 Woman of Bath (Emperoress)

With 5 marriage rings and spurs; you can't help but love her.

I envy the 12-pound hat I came up with.

04 Munk (Emperor)

With added squirrels as hanged men.

If you get to see the whole dead tree, only his dog notices what life is left in it.

06 The Lovers

NO equivalent in Chaucer; Squire close but no dice (going to II of cups).

Currently reproducing this piece 6' tall (acrylic), if you want dibs on it. $2400

18 Friar (Moon)

My best card reader "joke", since the usual suspect is now dinner.

The undertones of evil are massive on the full piece.

Queen of Wands

Since I consider this "my card", this image is actually skewed to be me, and all the things I love.

Including Faye-Faye, no matter how obnoxious she is.
