Artist's Comments

This is a part of my Old West Tarot series.

I'm using playing card suits rather than tarot suits. Hearts is equivalent to Cups or Chalices.

Western/Tarot Equivalents:
Tart = Page/Princess
Deputy = Knight
Madam = Queen
Sheriff = King

Ace - Wealthy couple
2 - Well-to-do young couple
3 - Wounded man
4 - Solemn cowboy
5 - Native American
6 - Brother and sister
7 - Female robber
8 - Storm-wrecked couple
9 - Rich couple
10 - Couple at home
T - Tart in her bedroom
D - Deputy waiting for a duel
M - Señora and a gentleman
S - Sheriff getting shot (in the heart outside the Wild Ass Saloon)

If you want to know which stock artists went with which card, go to here ([link]) and click on the individual card. There's just too many to detail the individual pieces of each card here. I DID, however, put all the stock artists in a list in order to provide credit.

If any stock artists are wondering why I didn't note them with a link to the full suit, it's because it's far easier to see the use of your work in the individual card pix, and this is just a compilation of them.

nice - one thing when I was clicking through the individual cards though - the heart you use must be at a lower resolution, because it's sort of fuzzy around the edges and doesn't quite fit with the overall quality of the rest of the card. Otherwise, these are great, you're obviously putting a lot of thought into them! keep up the awesome!

I got all the suits from one pic. They are a bit fuzzy because I had to rotate them to upright and enlarge them slightly, but it was the best pic I could find that had all 4. I didn't want to use suits from different decks in case the black wasn't quite black or the reds weren't the same.

ah - I just assumed you used a shape in photoshop or something like that. makes sense then.

No. I used a stock photo. I probably should have used one of those shape fonts Wingdings or Webdings...one of them has suits. I may make a double-release of the full deck, one with the stock suits, one with the cleaned-up font suits. I'm not sure. I could do it easily in MS Paint, though.

I think that photoshop (or at least the version I use) has the suits as shape tools as well. Because they're sort of isolated elements of the cards, the would be fairly simple to swap out, except for the sheer number since you're so far along.

I'm using Photoshop 5.0. I'm 100% sure that Photoshop 5 doesn't. I'm planning on doing an extra full deck. Typed suits and a rose clipart in the top right. I may or may not do it. It would only be the full deck pic, anyhow. No individual cards.

I've started work on the full deck compilation with cleaner suits, but it's far from being done. I won't be releasing individual suits or cards that way, just a giant image of a full deck with the note that if someone wants a card or two I can cut and email, but if they want all of them separate, they should separate them themselves.
