The 78 Tarot Project

I am honored to be a part of a global art collaboration 78 Tarot, where 78 artists from around the world have each illustrated a single card of a tarot deck. We have all of the cards finished and are in the midst of fundraising on kickstarter. If you would like to learn more and see the deck be created visit us here:

If you would like to help fund the decks creation please see our kickstarter page here:

We are offering discounted limited edition decks plus all kinds of perks and prizes, including original art and prints donated by the artists!! 

Here is my contribution, the 8 of Wands

Monochromatic Series Update

I have begun five new paintings in my monochromatic wildlife series! I have not yet decided how many paintings the series will contain. As long as I am inspired I will keep going. The monochromatic series are painted entirely using only one color plus black and white for shading and tinting.

Please keep in mind these paintings are not complete. If you would like to follow the step by step completion of these, please like my Face Book page here ArtbyAnastasia
