Tarot Card Art Assignment - Art Slice Short 01
Leonora Carrington and Remedios Varo were inspired by Tarot imagery throughout their careers and it became woven within each of their own painting languages.
So for this week’s Art Slice Art Assignment, we are asking you to make your own Tarot card! Redesign an existing Tarot image or create your own.
You can use any materials you have at your disposal. No reason to go out and buy artist materials.
It’s not too late to show us your Tarot by submitting it to artslicepod@gmail.com!
Andrew’s Tarot - ii:i THE LIGHTHOUSE
Andrew said about his work “towering atop a small rock island sits a stubby lighthouse. Its light shines steady and true. All around is nothing but calm ocean. And though you're nowhere near land, this guiding light tells you that you are on the right path, and reassures you that you know how to navigate any nearby dangers safely going forward.”
Upright: Surety, protection, direction, respite, earned comfort.
Reversed: No sense of direction, lack of confidence, isolation, misguidance.
Luciana’s Tarot - VII - The Businessman
Luciana said about her work “this card is, naturally, a blessing when it comes to financial and career readings. Despite challenges, the businessman strides forward with determination and refuses to see failure as an option. The Businessman is strategic, jumps at opportunities, and stands tall.”
Upright: Strategy, Determination, Focus, Leadership
Reversed: Arrogance, Materialism, No clear goals
Stephanie’s Tarot - El Mirror O
“I think the world would be a better place if everyone had some introspection.”

Upside down: lacking perspective, delusion, general bad vibes
Russell’s Tarot - 8 of Cups
Russell said about his choice “I browsed through the Minor Arcana and this card really stuck out to me. After looking up how it is commonly interpreted I related to it instantly. The last two years I have been ridding myself of things that are not emotionally fulfilling in my life.”
Upright - Ridding yourself of unnecessary baggage.
Reverse - Hesitating, fear of moving forward
