Description
Tarot. To see the rest of the cards, and for more information about the deck: [link]K N I G H T o f S W O R D S
The Knight of Swords is the brave hero who rushes headlong into conflict to defend his beliefs. He is blunt and comes directly to his point. He is domineering, a seeker, slicing through the skies with his sword and his wings. A storm gathers in his wake, borne of the turbulence his winged army creates, and he is lifted high above it all to pierce through the chaos. The sword is a beacon.
He calls out to the night's abyss:
Lift me up spirits of Sky
grant me keen sight of Hawk
swiftness of Sparrow
grant me insight of Raven
brave heartbeat of Hummingbird
bear me up with grace on wings of Swan
guide me with visions of wisdom from Owl

I don't suppose you intend to publish and sell this tarot deck when you're done creating it? It's gorgeous and I KNOW my mother would absolutely love it.

Every picture you paint amazes me more. How do you do that? What brand of watercolor do you use? I know that does not make the artist, but quality is really nice to have.

Stephanie, how do you keep those white lines so clean?

I occasionally use a little bit of white gouache, or a white gel pen, though in general it's better to keep the whites by avoiding painting in them. The paper's white is much brighter than anything applied on afterwards.
