This angel from the back of your Dreamscapes book is one of my favorites of all your work, so I was disappointed he wasn't included in the tutorial. In isolation, on the white background of the book, I see him as a loving, protective guardian angel. I also love the color palette on this tarot card, and the black swans are beautiful. Sadly, the only thing I don't like is the inclusion of this particular angel on a card that has such a negative meaning.
I love this tarot deck, but one problem I have with it is that your artwork is so beautifully intricate, the size of the cards makes the detail difficult to make out, and I need to rely on the book to interpret them and see the detail properly (in black & white). It's the most beautiful art deck I've ever seen though; I just wish it came in a larger size!

A very beautiful design for this card - this definitely ranks among my favorites of the cards you have made thus far! I just love that you made the birds and the bottom half of him dark, like the light of his upper body has been eaten away. Very nice!!

Not your usually flowery fare, but I do like this cleaner, tighter composition. The lack of intricate details doesn't take away from it at all.

By far my favorite of all the ones you've done so far for this deck. There's a sense of power and darkness from it. You've illustrated the meaning quite well. Bravo!

Goodness, for a card with such a negative meaning, this is one of your most beautiful yet. I've loved the swan theme you have in all the swords cards.
