So, I am a bit belated...unfortunately, it happens. The objective nonetheless is to continue to develop and explore the possibilities of working with clipping masks and the conscious creation of holes and absent/abstract forms.
I am a partial to my work with the tarot cards so I decided to continue in that vein of working. This time, I am 'pulling the camera out' and giving the viewer a little more disclosure on what was supposed from the first set of images. One can easily dream up scenes of an old gypsy laying out someone's future by candlelight. So why not? It is an idea rich with source imagery and mystique. Not to mention it is a perfect theme for the holiday season. tehe =]
I picked out the two tarot cards that are connected to my zodiac signs. I am a cusp baby so I needed one for Scorpio and one for Sagittarius. Scorpio correlates with the Death card and the Temperance card correlates with Sagittarius. Bother have connotations that pertain to certain aspects of the zodiac's personality type. They are the ones given the most focus, especially since they have conflicting reactions when drawn from the deck.
I am looking for type that somehow connects back to those reactions. This is all very up in the air, but I hope to focus it down with some working.
