"The Devil" Tarot card

As part of the Tarot study group, I volunteered to create this card, so notes on the symbolism can be found there.
The image was constructed in Adobe Photoshop, using "real" images (the outside view and also the shrunk and warped blue bell on the computer screen), adapted images (such as the Druid's head image in the corners, the border around the card) and free hand drawing.

"Don't look to the end of the rainbow for the pot of gold; it's already under your feet"
Enjoy this life. It would be a shame if we looked forward to the next, only to find we forgot the one before.

Letting go

This is my entry. It is a drawing in pen and coloured with pencils, then adjusted in photoshop. The sky background is a photo I took earlier this year. I began working on this after losing my little cat.
