Artist's Comments

(2008) 5 1/2" x 10 1/2" Pencil on Paper. Processed and framed in Photoshop.

I am posting the pips as sets of four showing the permutations of each element as it reaches the next stage. Roughly defined Wands stand for Fire and for a person's will and spirit, Cups stand for Water and the emotions and soul, Swords for Air and the intellect and rational thought, and Disks represent Earth and the body and physical being.

In the 2s, each of the element gets doubled up, i.e. it gets to react to a similar impulse. For Cups we have two sparks of emotion and with a bit of mutual attraction going on we end up with love as the meaning of this card.

In a spread the card signifies happiness in love, sensuality, harmony and erotic attraction, the seeker usually looks for completion in union with someone else and the 2 of Cups may point to an important positive encounter and may end up in love and partnership.

No, I don't believe that you can mix love in a bottle, but I needed something that involved two cups or glasses, and so a few drops of amortentia for two champagne drinkers seemed just like the ticket. Incidentally the two glass flutes actually were a wedding present for my husband and me.

Wow! Very well done! I like how you drew the glass, and you didn't even forget the small (*looking for an english word* ^^ ) streaks of the drop that's already in the glass.

Miracles happen every second of our lives. You just have to be aware enough to see them.

true love between a husband and wife comes from dedication and loyalty of heart, created from their innermost beings.

What hurts the most, was being so close
And having so much to say
And watching you walk away
Never knowing, what could have been
And not seeing that loving you
Is what I was trying to do
:iconalcinavomsteinsberg:
Geniale Idee, das thematisch so umzusetzen, und auch hier wieder absolut genial gezeichnet. Die Hand ist atemberaubend, aber auch der Schattenfall im Kristallschliff der Gläser einfach nur phantastisch.
