So, I got into this habit of starting a piece whenever i’m in some kind of extreme negative emotion. It has been really helpful in managing the moment. This is probably one of my favorite pieces I have ever done, and marks a turning point for myself, my emotional healing, and my artwork.

So, it’s always been kind of a dream of mine to create a playing card deck. I’ve been a unique deck collector for some time, and Having a deck of cards distributed would be like…a huge tick off the bucket list.

Why not now?

INTRODUCING …THE SKEL-TECH DECK!

So, that’s been my project for the past few weeks. It’s been helping with a serious bout of insomnia as well. I can’t sleep, but don’t feel like getting out all my drawing stuff, so i’ve been drawing the symbols and illustrations on the cards through ibispaint on my phone. YEP. everything you see in the following gallery is a collaboration between my phone (initial drawings) and illustrator/photoshop (layouts and touch ups).

Yes, Creativity finds a way. Or whatever Jeff Goldbloom said.

I’m hoping to have them available for pre-order by December or January. (fingers crossed)
