Nick Bantock Tarot Card Swap

In the Travelersart yahoo group, red dog started a Nick Bantock Tarot Card swap.  I am assigned "the tower."  I have not played with tarot in any manner so had to do some research.  After that, I felt I need ed to renew my understanding of how NB worked too.  So, finally I felt I was equipped with enough knowledge to give it a try.  Here are my efforts.

My first try.  It was way too busy and not enough color to make me happy.


After some color enhancing with PSE, the color was good but the design disastrous!  Even though the card depicts disasters and such, I decided to try another one.


Ahhh... much better and easier to read, I hope.  So, 26 copies later, I am trimming to 3.5 X 5 inches signing them and giving them a gloss acrylic finish.  Soon, the mailbox to the swap host!
