Deviant Art: Dragons Over Stonehenge

Kat Sanders — Wed, 01 Feb 2012 13:00:23 +0000

I was inspired by the Stonehenge photo that CAStock has up over on Deviant Art. It is a beautiful photo. I love dragons and anything fantasy. This is my take of a dragon battle over Stonehenge. Now, if I could just find the money to be able to visit Stonehenge myself. That would be a dream come true!

Ace of Pentacles Tarot Card by Zaubrer on Deviant Art

Kat Sanders — Mon, 23 Jan 2012 08:04:59 +0000

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.

The Ace of Pentacles Tarot Card

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.

Required:
