Acrylic on wood. Mallorca 2006. This painting is earlier than the last one I posted although it is really from the same time when reading the same books from Jung and Jodorowsky. I used these painting exercises to grow a kind of fluidity with the possible relationship between the different arcanos. In this case I will share a few of the images I did while painting it. I was living in Mallorca that winter of 2006. I was in one of my retreating episodes where I would paint for about 12 hours a day. I´d combine that with a cycling outing each day, to get some fresh air and movement. I had painted one of my random bases, in no particular shape: ![tarot02.10.06.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmQYM1PybYsDgyo1jrsH7xX3ASZ4WN2EyXsNVdCQAqumTV/tarot02.10.06.jpg) Then I decided to place the tarot cards upside down all over the painting, not knowing where each one wold be. Then I´d turn them over and write in pencil the number of where they were. ![makingtarot.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmS3dfKPvErHaScy1AMza7B6kPWCwqgQHKAUSXZSYJv7mc/makingtarot.jpg) Then I just painted each one in that place as I felt it at that moment and had to kind of also find the limits and relations between them. (sorry about the poor quality of image, it´s old) ![tarot06.10.06 2.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmZQmG9876vPmR1ic7HCRUU5o7KhuSbELGVJUt9m5qHfLq/tarot06.10.06%202.jpg) ![tarotdetalle.b.6.10.jpg](https://steemitimages.com/DQmV2UH5vNaqtQ93qShPP9qTcjN9jVhhYGVt8fQYHttFFSA/tarotdetalle.b.6.10.jpg) This was a lot of work and I was also not very happy with the result, as I felt it was also so cluttered. I wasn´t even going to exhibit it, I thought it would stay with me as an exercise. I was convinced by friends to exhibit it in the exhibition I did shortly after finishing it and it was the first to find a home. The woman who bought it was so emotional I couldn´t believe it. Since then, I know for sure that not always people prefer the same ones as me... it can be very different. Anyway, I hope you enjoyed this painting, Best Wishes!
