Tarocchi di Hermann Haindl      Hermann Haindl      Italy                                                   Art Medium: Paintings. Description: Italian edition. Haindl painted these on large canvasses. To begin with he placed these on the floor and dripped and smeared paint on them to create the background tones and textures. He then drew in the detailed forms in black outline, sometimes scratching back the first paint layer to the white ground. He then worked over the canvas applying paint with small brushes. In places he draws on the Crowley/Freida Harris designs. The courts of the Wands are associated with Hinduism, Cups to Celtic and Nordic culture, Swords to Ancient Egypt and Stones to Native American Indian mythology.
