more tarot

I don't think I told you my 
CONCEPT 
with the TUMBLEWEEDS 
it's like they're coming up on ya

tumble dee 
& tumble dum -- what's it gonna be
all attitude-y 

it's still a little blurry

I'm thinking 
collage

BUT 

I'm uncertain 
I'd KINDA 
like to stick with black & white
I like how the big manga pen looks
BUT THEN
I liked the look of the fountain pen too

& ALSO 
I don't think it'll look great in manga pen
MAYBE 
the next size smaller

I really like those
PIGMA SENSEI 

I also thought the FOOL originally 
that japanese calligraphy 
what's it called 

ENSO

that was my more complicated version
with big manga pen

the FIREBALLS 
are 
whirling around
FULL of ENERGY

the two of fireballs is -- pick me. pick me.

then the badges are more static 
BUT 
they've got the 
oracular feature
& will have much MORE visual

& RAINDROPS
I'm trying to get an emotional VIBE 
& I'm not quite there

I'm experimenting 
I keep wanting 
it to be
in color

I found a blank cards on eBay
I want to get some kinda

workable sample
so I can test 
HOW 
it WORKS

it is entirely possible that I've made it
TOO literal

& then I'm trying to make the RAINDROPS 
TOO esoteric
a raindrop with a sprouted plant refected inside 

two raindrops 
INTERSECTING
maybe with a rose reflecting inside 
but maybe that's too much 

three I'm not sure yet

four are dripping into a bowl, I think 

five is some kind of representation of flooding 
if I can figure out
HOW 

seven I'm THINKING of
that Escher print
where the birds turn into fish
& then you try to spot
WHERE 

HOW 
that connects with 
RAINDROPS 

eight has an umbrella 

nine is a rainbow made of raindrops 

ten is the water cycle -- which SEEMS TOO MUCH 

I skipped six
I wonder if that's significant 
six is WATCHING rain
through the window 
maybe there's a garden, maybe that isn't necessary 

and the court cards
I didn't even THINK about 
that's a BIG chunk

f*CK
I need to sleep 
I LOVE you VERY much sweetheart
