More Treasures

At an estate sale I found this treasure
for one dollar  :) !!!
The entire 78 card set
unused
I love these block prints
I have some colorful Goddess Tarot
but this Light and Shadow is quite different
I don't do Tarot
Wish I could
But I think I'm too lazy
or just not interested enough
 to learn all the card meanings
So when I pull a card
for myself
I just get out the little book
and read my daily fate
And I purchase the cards because I am addicted
to the art
 
This artist, Michael Goepferd
has an awesome bio
He has been a world traveler
and helped start Fire Thorn Studio
in San Francisco
where he created these block prints
I am happy to have his art and
I share a little of it here with you
Enjoy!
 


 
"Michael doesn't consider himself a Tarot expert but rather an artist who has found in the iconography of the Tarot all the great themes of life and art."

  1. I agree these cards are wonderful art and it is fun to pick one rather than doing the major Tarot spread. Wouldn't it be fun to paint a deck of your own?

  2. Wow, great cards Judie. Awesome find for $1. I don't know anything about Tarot readings. My Grandmother used to say that cards and TV are the works of the devil. :) tee hee. I think I am beginning to agree as far as the TV is concerned. PBS is all I watch and darned if I didn't get hooked on Millionaire NY Real Estate and LA Millionaire Real Estate. I have a real estate license but am not practicing right now. Perhaps hints will come my should I decide to get back into the practice. Great drawings, love them. Take care.

  4. What a great find!! I would have snatched them up, too. The art is so cool. I love black and white art.
