Prints from Witches Tarot

Giclee Print Empress Witches Tarot by Mark Evans
Hello everyone!

I'm in the proof stage with the Giclee (zhee-klay) printer I've chosen to print the artwork for Witches Tarot.

For the tarot paintings, I've chosen a very thick, heavyweight, matte finish paper engineered for high contrast and crisp reproduction of high resolution images. It is Acid-free for archival longevity and really makes the colors pop.

The prints will either be 9" x 12" or 9.5" x 13" and shipped flat. The paper is too rigid to be shipped any other way.

There will also be a system in place if you want a larger print.

I've done my best to make these prints an affordable, quality item that will last for generations to come. I think everyone will be happy with the final product.

Further information about price will be forthcoming on https://www.facebook.com/WitchesTarot

and Witches Tarot.

Thank you all for your kindness and support. It means more than you know.

OH! I NOW have a facebook page.

I’ll drop a line here when the website is up.

Until then, here is The Empress card. I’m very pleased with the way she turned out.

Witches Tarot coming in September

Retail Box of The Witches Tarot by Ellen Dugan and Mark Evans
In June of 2010 I started working on a seventy-eight painting tarot card deck, for Llewelyn Worldwide, called Witches Tarot.

I just received word that the deck will be released in September and I can’t wait for everyone to see it!

When I accepted the job, I knew nothing of Tarot and it’s history. I was blessed to have the legendary award-winning author Ellen Dugan as my collaborator. With her guidance and vast knowledge, the meaning and symbolism of each illustration was true to the traditions of the Tarot community.

From Llewellyn Publications--

Positively radiating witchy energy, this easy-to-use tarot showcases beautiful and evocative digital artwork. Echoing the traditional Rider-Waite structure, each card includes instantly recognizable Pagan symbols that resonate with today’s Witch. In addition to card descriptions and meanings, Dugan’s companion guide features seven unique, spell-enhancing spreads for both tarot readings and magickal practice.

I think we both did some absolutely FANTASTIC work on this set. Ellen scripted and designed the deck, and wrote the original accompanying book. I’m proud of my 78 paintings and I am equally proud of the glorious text that accompanies each illustration. I thank Ellen and the good people at Llewellyn for including me in such an awesome project.

Ellen and I will have prints, an artbook and a few super special limited edition items to coincide with the release of the deck.
