Description

his is a completed version of the image I created for The ImagineFX challenge #124 Bad Omen. It won for that week in a very close race with some other talented artist who entered. I reused a character that I created for Ace in The Hole, Cal. Now when cal was a young girl her mother went missing after a lot of peculiar events took place in town. She never was found and young Cal was left in the care of her mothers best friend and business partner Black Pearl. After a while they found in Miss Cal's mothers things this odd deck of cards. How odd no one knew til Pearl's great granma saw them. They was a deck of cards soaked in magic. Deep magic. Old magic. Mostly the cards could be used to see the immediate future, but they could be used in other ways if one knew how. Any way this here time the cards ,based on a card reading system called ARCANA ARCANORUM, told of a werebeast, a cat thing and how cal had to take charge if we were to survive. Here follows meanings of the Cards FOUR OF SPADES: FREEDOM: Lifting of oppression; the inner power of the individual stands unchained. QUEEN OF CLUBS: EQUILIBRIUM, The essential balance of the Universe. All was once in Equilibrium; one day, all will return. ACE OF DIAMONDS: MATERIALITY, The physical; the temptations.

interesting. i think this is one of your cleanest, most highly worked pieces. everything looks detailed and highly controlled. i think it's an excellent piece, and one of your best, but it also tells me what sort of style the judges prefer. it's obvious you put a lot of work into this.
