And Finally On to the Majors...
Sentimental
My artist for this feature is
It's time I featured some photography again, and so would like to introduce a fabulous animal photographer. As his name says his main work focuses on big cats, and he does an awesome job capturing them, not just their appearance, but their inner soul, and to me that's what makes the difference between a good and a great animal photographer.
Well, I finished all my Tarot court cards, and before I proceed with posting my Majors I wanted to share my final allocation of cards as there were a few changes along the way:

In other news
has asked some of her mates to support a move to have DA not just sell prints but start a store for original artwork as well. All of you crafters out there, this should be important. No one buys a print of a necklace or a pair of earrings to hang on their wall, so the only way you can really make some money off your stuff is to hawk the actual piece!If this is your cup of tea, check out this site and vote.

* If you ask me to make artwork available as a print, please check if it uses copyrighted material. DA will not take print submissions that are based on such materials. This means, no prints of drawings based on movies or TV shows like the Harry Potter Movies, Brokeback Mountain, CSI etc. If you want a drawing as a print please note me instead.

Devious Comments
I just love your take on the Harry Potter novels/movies to make a Tarot deck. I have full confidence in you when making the rest of the cards. They will be just as wonderful as the court cards. Have you given any thoughts to what you want to do with the pip cards? You said you didn't plan on making any characters for those cards.
It surely sounds like a good idea with the store. Then the artists would be able to sell their original artworks as well. I hope something will come out of it. There are so many talented artists here at DA, they deserve being able to make a little money out of their beautiful deviations.
I hope everything is well with you and your family. Is work doing okay or is it still very busy?
All the best, Linda!

Your tarot deck is shaping up very nicely, and your recent jewellery is stunning.
Also, if you like wildlife photography and film, I must point you at Kim Wolhuter's work [link] his wildlife diaries are well worth reading. Unfortunately, he's not on Deviant Art, as far as I know.
