My family and I are enjoying a DVD collection of an HBO series called "Carnivàle" and I must say that I am thoroughly enjoying the show, it has an excellent magical and dark quality that I think is something that has been an unfilled niche for a very long time.
Unfortunately that niche appears to be unsustainable as the show only lasted 2 seasons, of which I will be purchasing both when I return to my apartment in the big city.
The opening credits of Carnivàle are quite incredible on their own. Images of the a Tarot card deck are interspersed with images from the Dustbowl which is when the show is set. Finding these credits inspiring... I found myself saying:
"I should design a Tarot deck"
so since that what this blog is about... I would love to hear about suggestions for designs for your favorite card(s), or the meanings behind cards that might be hither to known to the parts of my brain.

I've been catching up on your new blog today. Looks like you've had a busy few days posting-wise.
I like your tarot idea. I wonder if there would be a way you could open it up to more creatives.
My experience with tarot to date has been rather limited so all I can suggest is start with your favourite, or maybe the major arcana.
