A project I've been working on since the end of 2025, a "deck of cards".

Instead of suits, I did colors: sepia, green, blue, and black. I then did tangle groups instead of numbers and ranks.

I created a rubber stamp for the card outline, and spread watercolor over it, and then printed the cards. Shading was done using colored pencils, except for the black cards where I used a Cretacolor Nero pencil.
