My Tarot deck from 2024

I made these last year mostly while my gf caught up on her soaps on my pc. The media are actual blank tarot cards + markers, pencils, fine liners and calligraphy markers. The borders and calligraphy smudged quite a bit before I found a pen with very good quick drying ink.

There are 5 suits (unlike traditional) and the minor arcana have different titles for the royalty than the usual page, jack(or knight), queen and king. Mainly I drew a lot of inspiration over the years making tarot decks from both D&D sources (Deck of Many Things for example) and Piers Anthony's Tarot series. And of course the Rider-Waite deck.

There's a very comforting quality to your artwork. Have you ever worked with watercolors or ink-washes? If not you should give 'em a try, I think it'd work well with your style. Like do your linework, then block in some general color with watercolors/inks, and go in with the pencils on top.

That said, I did some snooping around your site, and while I do love your drawn artwork, your real hidden talent is your music! You have an amazing singing voice! Again, also very comforting, haha... you've just got a very comforting aura to you. If you want, I can introduce you to a lady that I'm good friends with who produces some of the top country artists, who also has ins with Disney and some other big platforms... with the right band and a good producer, you could be this generation's Bob Dylan! I've only listened to a few songs picked at random, but imma go through the list, you're really good!

I'm curious about tarot cards, I've never really looked into them. I get the general idea, but is there like an 'official' way to use them? What would be a good resource for me to look to if I wanna learn about tarot?
