Calgary's The Shakespeare Company premiered a play called Queens this week, about some of the Bard's female characters. I provided some illustrations that will be used as projections. I was asked to insert drawings of the actor's faces into specific tarot cards. Using Pamela Colman Smith's illustrations from the Rider-Waite tarot deck, I decided to take it a little further and redid the linework for clarity and tweaked the colors somewhat (a lot). Below are the original cards alongside my reworkings. Click for bigitude.
I was asked to provide just a scan of the Tower card as well, but I did this one too, so they would hang together as a series more.
