I have entered a contest on Deviant Art for the group DarkArts-Challenges. It is to make your own Ace tarot card. You get to choose which suite. There is required stock that must be used and then you can choose any additional stock. This is a photo-manipulation contest.
This is my level 1 entry for the Dark Arts Challenge: Winter Contest – Tarot http://darkart-challenges.deviantart.com/
My favorite tarot deck is The Animal-Wise Tarot by Ted Andrews. In it the Ace of Pentacles is the Bison (Ace of Four-Legged). Hence, the bison skulls in the frame.
From the contest notes: ACE OF PENTACLES
The Ace of Pentacles is the foundation for all kinds of projects in the real world; this foundation is as valuable as gold, and as solid as concrete. It is the cornerstone of a building that might stand for decades, or crumble to dust after a few years – this is determined by how the rest of the structure is put together. The Ace of Pentacles is not the promise of long-lasting financial and material security that some might expect, but it is the sign that such things are within your reach. It gives you the resources to go in search of higher goals.
