I am starting a new long term art project I’m calling My Tarot. I pull a card from the deck, study it and paint my own understanding of it. This should take about twenty years!
The card for this weekend is the Three of Discs, which is appropriately the card of the writer and artist. That said, it means applying the qualities of pure hard work, discipline and dedication.
When I painted it, I noticed that for me it is a sort of triple mandala. The great sources are the Sea of the Unconscious and the gifts it throws up on the beaches of creativity; the Sun of Insight and Inspiration; and in between, struggling for consciousness, is Craft, the Human as World Tree.
Yikes, a worthy project and yes it could take you the rest of your life! I will watch with great interest.
