This i s the first i mage of a series I hope to complete i n the next few years. I am working on a tarot deck that has a dance of the dead or danse macabre theme. The finished series will consist of 22 major arcana, and 56 minor which will be divided i n four different suits. I began with the Magician, and I added a detail photo to the right of the image. This i s a multiple plate print. The border i s drypoint on acrylic. The inner design is etching and mono-type on copper.
