The Garden Tarot

For 6 years I have been creating a tarot deck inspired by my interest in gardening and cultivation as a hobby grower and a creater of my summerhouse. My dream has been for a long time of my life to create a tarot deck as an artist and a mystic to have a self-designed deck at hand as a tarot reader. So there has been a longing to find something that I have thogut of in my imagenation to create.

Ever since a friend of mine came home for lunch a very long time ago She told me that she had a dream to to create large paintings of the Rider Waite game. ten years later I made a large a large painting of The High Priestess which I understood i I should do sutch lage canvases of the tarotcards It will mearly take a lifetime to accoplish a whole set of 78 card to painting. So eatch canvas take several months to complete. them in full size on canvases. so I gave up my ambitions to do any more such works.

One beautiful summer day I sat on my neighbour's terrace at the summer cottage and drank coffee. He asked me what I would do when I had now finished my summerhouse and if I had something new to put my teeth in.
I replied that I would try to start making a tarot deck if I managed to make 20 sketches in a month, which I did, and some more. I thought from the beginning that it should be something personal and hopefully, something that was a bit unique and also why I chose to make a design based on a favourite hobby and interest of mine.

What When it came to the pure design, I know that not many people have used pure nature and as an inspirational theme for a tarot deck, I thought. Because it is spiritual in its pure form. There is so much to draw from it as spiritual role models and symbols archetypal shapes that have connections to the cards and meanings that are written in them. .
