Hi there, wanted to take a minute to share with all of you supporting this journey a little behind the scenes!
My favorite email's to receive are from my artists and to see the process of a piece. So I am here to share with you a work in progress!
This piece is named, The Commander: In traditional Raider-Waite tarot this is the Queen of Wands. This cards symbolizes passion, resilience, and courage. For The Traveler's tarot this card represents the strength and energy it requires to achieve something great and the amount of effort and dedication to overcome any challenge. This card is inspired by a marathon runner named Louise Butcher who had survived breast cancer, had a double mastectomy, and now she runs topless to raise breast cancer and mastectomy awareness. This card is with the collaboration of the talented Amanda Phelps. Once this card is fully illustrated it will be available as a print with all proceeds being donated to breast cancer.
Deciding to crowdfund and self publish came from wanting to personally art direct this project and bring the vision I had for it to life. As well as have a platform for artists involved to create meaningful work and have the ability to give back to community or causes that are important. I am so eager to share more upcoming artwork! (Currently 7 pieces in development) so be on the lookout for more soon!
We maybe nearing the end of this campaign, just 3 days left! But, this card is a reminder of the exciting journey ahead to see this project finished and off to you all!
Thank you again for joining in, you're support is the encouragement that keeps the momentum going!
