high priestess tarot card

to celebrate the third anniversary of the ultra-cool superpunch blog, site creator/curator john struan organized a kick ass project: he asked 78 of his favorite artists to each illustrate a card from a tarot deck. he posted the first 18 cards today, and if they're any indication, the complete deck is going to rock when it's all finished.

i was lucky enough to be invited to participate in the project and took a crack at the high priestess. not being too familiar with tarot mythology, i did a bit of research and decided to vamp up this strong, mysterious woman and drop her into a grindhouse movie poster.

anyway, it was a blast to work on. keep your eyes peeled for the rest of the artists' cards as they debut over at superpunch!
