Description
Tarot. For more information about the deck and to see the rest of the cards: [link]Queen of Swords - With her blade the Queen of Swords slices through lies and deceptions to the heart of truth. She is honesty and inner knowledge, sending forth her winged seekers into the world. They are an extension of her being and her soul.
The blinding white is the color of purity, honesty, clarity, uncompromised balance; but also of distance, and sometimes death, for sometimes to get to truth one must cast off the old to discard pretense and guile.
The Queen of Swords is an intelligent woman, loyal, witty, and humorous in her forthright way. She is valued for her accurate perceptions of the world around her, and her experiences.
In the language of flowers, purple dragon lilies are symbols of inner strength, and white chrysanthemums of truth.

Your coloring style is unique, polished, and detailed. It's hard to believe that someone could create such a beautiful world with watercolors, but you did it. WOW.
The simple complexity of this picture is great. i love the detail on the dragon lilies, and I think you did a great job on keeping the Queen simple, but still having a powerful presence. She's not flamboyant or fancy, but that aspect makes her all the more noticeable and beautiful.

Yeah, the old one was a digital piece that I liked the original concept of, but wanted to revisit to make it better.

I remember, and I must say that although the digital one was amazing, this one is so much better - it has more emotions, the colors are softer, and it has this overall feeling that touches my sense for AMAZING! Stephanie, thank you for your beautiful art.
And sorry for stalking you everywhere you are on the Internet

Hey again Puimun.
I sent you an email earlier today under the name Matt.
I love the pale colors in this one. it really makes the purple flowers stand out.
This one is a great addition to the set, but I think my favorite swords painting is the Ten.
