Description : This Taiwanese deck was issued as a portfolio of large format 'cards' loosely bound on their top edge into a perfect bound book, so that it was easy to disassemble in order to have a set of large cards. The artwork was very detailed and really needed that large format. A year later the card designs were issued as a standard format deck with the cards being slightly cropped to fit the space. It is a contemporary, in-your-face, gothic, neo-symbolist Tarot. The card titles are printed on the rear of the card black and white version of one of the Rider Waite decks leaving the face for the imagery. Though born in Hong Kong, Evan has now based himself in Taiwan and has worked on many art projects. He is not only an accomplished expressive painter but also an illustrator and sculptor. Evan’s artwork has been favourably compared to Klimt, and although one sees some influences from there, his reach is much wider. He has obviously studied the symbolist and decadent painters of the late 19th century, and though he does not copy their style, in some way he seems to be working out of this aesthetic. His tarot, apart from a handful of cards, expresses its ideas through a human figure. This figure is usually sharply drawn and painted, while the backgrounds in many cases are just blocked in with washes of colour and texture, often over graphically collaged flowers. In places he has inserted what, to a first glance, seem to be sketched construction lines for his figures, however, as these are on top of the painted surface it is just a neat device to make the photorealism of the paintings appear more spontaneous and lively. He is a true master of his medium being willing to incorporate tricks like this. He uses a small group of models (a young woman and two men) who thus appear on many of the cards and this integrates the imagery and ties the whole concept neatly together. It is likely that he worked by initially taking precisely posed and well lit photographs as the basis for the paintings. The figures are often depicted in BDSM chic, with leather straps and rivets, some having facial piercings. The Queen and King card of each suit are in a more classic symbolist fin-de-siècle style, rather than the modern bondage fashionware. These are sumptuous images, and though some of the images seem disturbing on an initial glance, this is not a dark gothic deck, but merely one glorifying a style, underneath the outer surface of which lies rather conventional tarot imagery. The Minor arcana closely echo the familiar emblematic material of the Rider Waite deck.
Art Medium : Oil paintings often using thin scraped layers to give textured areas. These have then been imported into a computer graphics program and modified with collaged elements.

Description : Printed on matt silver surfaced card. The deck may be named in honour of the famous Chinese painter of the Ming dynasty. It is rather well printed in black line on a silver background, with the titles in red circles. The original pen drawings are beautifully conceived, and show us the artist's subtle sense of humour. Thus the Fool is an elephant carrying the mountain on his back rather than being about to step off a precipice. The Moon has a rabbit at its centre seeming to be pounding something in a mortar. We recall that in Chinese mythology, the Jade Rabbit was seen in the markings of the moon as a rabbit pounding herbs in a mortar to make the Elixir of life for the Moon goddess Chang'e.

Description : Beautifully stylish artwork, primarily grey and black but with very restrained use of some reds and yellows on some of the cards to produce an emphasis. It focusses entirely on the gesture and posture of the human figure, with no backgrounds and only small elements held by the figures to suggest the archetype of the particular arcana. It would appear to be printed in litho, with a top layer of black glossy varnished ink. Cards unnumbered and with some spelling errors in titles - 'The Empror', 'Whell of Fortune', 'The Eierophant'.
Art Medium : Though made to look like pen and brushed ink on fibre filled paper, this is more likely to have been created entirely digitally.

Description : This is a Japanese majors only deck created from black and white photographs by the artist Muramatsu Katsura. Each image was originally created as large silver gelatine emulsion prints (the older method for printing out black and and white photographs). Here the artist has overprinted two or three different negatives to create the final image (a bit like photoshop layers but done in the darkroom with an enlarger rather than using a computer). The images are quite enigmatic and not immediately recognisable as tarot images. The cards come in a rather stylish concertina like black folder with a silver cover. Thus one can open out the concertina and have all the cards in a line. They are held into the folder by little slits which enable the cards to be easily removed and replaced.

Description : In the 1990s the Morinaga Hi-Crown Chocolate company included a gift token with its chocolate products. If a customer sent back sufficient tokens, they would receive a tarot deck in a stitched faux leather pouch with a velcro closer. The company commissioned two decks, apparently, one for their plain and one for their milk chocolate. This one by Susumu Matsushita is in a modern, in-your-face, cartoon style. Matsushita had originally created some of these images for an anthology of writings on the Tarot, edited by Masao Ono in 1978, but reworked them for the Morinaga version.

Description : The first Japanese tarot production would appear to be the tarot deck and book issued by the publisher Keishobou in 1974. The book cover collages imagery, in the form of woodcuts and engravings, from various European alchemical, magical and emblematic works. The tarot deck itself, a full set of Majors and Minors, was created by Gaichi Muramatsu. It is a hybrid; the Marseilles style deck (providing the inspiration for the Majors and Court cards) and the Rider Waite deck (providing the Minors, with the imagery redrawn in Marseilles woodcut style. It adopts a rather restricted palette of red, green, brown, yellow and black. This was probably to reduce the costs, as the cards were screen printed in only five colours. Gaichi has also chosen to redraw the centre parts of the image so that often parts of the peripheral image are awkwardly cropped. Also called 'Secret Tarot'.

Description : The unlucky Bat Princess known as Fukoumori is another wacky character from Japanese manga, combining cute imagery within a gothic style. In 2007, a boxed Fukoumori Tarot was published complete with a plastic wallet and book of instructions. In the manga, the heroine, Fukoumori lives in a gothic mansion surrounded by her bats. The hook for the stories is that she is always unlucky, with all sorts of humorous accidents happening to her. It is surprising that the tarot imagery in many child-centred decks remains strong. Clearly, this imagery has penetrated through into children's imaginations; so much so, that an artist commissioned to illustrate a tarot feels obliged to keep to the well-known images.

Description : Gomi created this strange and obscure Entropy Tarot based upon the idea of entropy in physics, a measure of the degree of chaos and disorder in a physical system. The second law of thermodynamics states that the entropy of physical processes always increases. Gomi wanted us to focus on reducing the entropy, the degree of chaos in our lives. Perhaps he had read the 1944 book 'What is Life?' by quantum physicist Erwin Schrödinger who argued that life and human beings, through organising matter, have a need to reduce entropy. The imagery of his cards is enigmatic, but incorporates Feynman diagrams (the loops and arrowed lines), which were devised to represent the complex interplay of quantum mechanical processes, which are related directly to entropy. The imagery of this deck is arcane and impenetrable, but it incorporates and reflects back to us the physics of the 1980s.

Description : The medical doctor, Shigeki Gomi, became rather engaged with tarot imagery in the early 1980’s and came to create three idiosyncratic decks, which he self-published. Being a physician, Gomi began his work in his Medical Fantasy Tarot by envisaging the human body organ structures as a reflection of the Major arcana. His Fool is the foetus in the womb; his Magician is the human digestive system, which transmutes food into life energy. Temperance is the balance of the circulatory and respiratory system, which absorbs oxygen from the air and breathes out carbon dioxide through the cycle of red and blue forms of haemoglobin. The designs for his tarot are primarily taken from a well-known American anatomy textbook of the time, 'The Atlas of Clinical Anatomy' 1978, which had drawings by Terry Dolan. These have been modified through the use of airbrushing.

The game takes the form of a large book of rules combined with a set of tarot cards and some other cards, which are used in the game.

Description : Tsundere is a term in manga and anime describing a particular character type. It is the combination of two words 'tsuntsun' and 'deredere'. Tsuntsun refers an egoistic, hostile, tough, moody or angry character, who never shows any sign of hesitation or weakness. Deredere is the opposite of tsuntsun, being uncertain and more passive. Tsundere can thus often be applied to a character that changes moods quickly. This tarot comes with a CD with instructions in card reading by Rie Kugimiya. This deck is entirely female characters. There is another deck, Tsundere Tarot-B, consisting of male characters.

Description : The wonderfully surreal tarot of Shigeo Otake, on the theme of hallucinogenic mushrooms, has been published in book form, though not as actual cards. Otake has produced a number of illustrated books and seems especially inspired by Lewis Carroll's 'Alice in Wonderland'. His style incorporates soft, organic, forms, which flow and metamorphose. He has obviously closely studied artists such as Brueghel and the early surrealists, such as Tanguy and Delvaux. Each of his tarot cards are based on a particular species of mushroom, and it seems that in some cases he takes its actual natural form as the starting point for his imagery.

Description : The artist is totally obsessed with large breasts. Every figure in the tarot is depicted with such large breasts as to be ridiculous. It is obviously a parody probably referencing images from well known mangas. It was self-published as a doujinshi in 2005. The cards also bear names with mythological significance. High Priestess - Unicorn; Empress - Ishtar; Emperor - Griffon; Hierophant - Sphinx, etc.
Art Medium : Appears to be pencil drawings that have been imported into a graphics program and then coloured with rendered textures.

Description : The Nature Tarot, was illustrated by the Shower Design Studio under the direction of Alexandria Mokuseioh. The cards are circular, and rather Western in style. These may be the first published circular tarots. The round tarots Motherpeace 1981, Book of Aradia 1984, and the Daughters of the Moon 1986 which, shortly after this, emanated from the USA all seem to derive from a group of feminist inspired artists. There is unlikely to be any direct connection or inspiration from the Nature Tarot.

Description : Each of the 22 Majors is associated with a precious or semi-precious gemstone which is depicted on the card imagery. Thus the Lover is rose quartz, Strength is cat's eye, the Hanged Man is malachite, and so on. As with the Dragon's Tarot, these have been printed onto soft matt thick card on a high quality inkjet or giclee printer, which has somewhat softened any hard edges in the drawings, to give a diffuse effect.

Description : The Malkuth Tarot Deck, 2007, was issued as a promo with the Playstation 2 game 'Baroque'. It is a dungeon combat game in which the player has to find their way through the maze of tunnels by shooting up all the monsters they encounter. The artwork for the deck, which does not appear to have been derived from the game itself, is a wonderfully creative exploration of the conventional tarot imagery. The artist, sadly unrecognised in the documentation, consistently finds new ways of approaching the tarot. The Wheel of Fortune, for example, is a remarkable image.

Description : Tsundere is a term in manga and anime describing a particular character type. It is the combination of two words 'tsuntsun' and 'deredere'. Tsuntsun refers an egoistic, hostile, tough, moody or angry character, who never shows any sign of hesitation or weakness. Deredere is the opposite of tsuntsun, being uncertain and more passive. Tsundere can thus often be applied to a character that changes moods quickly. This tarot comes with a CD with instructions in card reading by Rie Kugimiya. This deck is entirely female characters. There is another deck, Tsundere Tarot, consisting of female characters.

Shape :
Description : Gomi's second deck 'The Buddhistic Fantasy Tarot' is a set of 22 large thick cards in a limited edition of 300 copies. These were unwieldy to shuffle for divination purposes and thus, we can assume, he primarily wished them to be viewed as artworks. This is an early example of a themed tarot deck, where the artist applies the existing tarot imagery to another iconographic system. Here he uses Buddhist statuary and other imagery as the basis for his imagery. He seems to draw on the major school of Japanese Buddhism, called Shingon, which is esoteric and iconographic. This has a complex set of thirteen Buddhas and Bodhisattvas. They are represented in his card designs from the Fool as Shakyamuni or Gautama Buddha, through the Chariot as the Manjusri Bodhisattva (Monju) to the Maitreya Bodhisattva (Miroku) as the Judgement. He created this cards using drawings, which have been coloured, again using an airbrush, the artistic effect of which Gomi obviously admired.

This deck and accompanying book were instigated by Midori Yamada, whose own book published in 1961 was issued with the first printing of a tarot deck in Japan. There she printed a version of the Rider-Waite deck but twenty years later, she inspired Mineo Maya to create an original tarot. For his tarot images, he created fine line drawings with detailed texturing effects. These are printed against black backgrounds with areas of gold. Mineo Maya later became famous as the creator of the long running manga series Pataliro.

The title page bears the mantra ''Hari Vishnu, Hari Krishna'' so it may have emanated from some Japanese followers of the ISKCON movement which was still very popular and visible on the streets of most cities in the 1980s.

This is derived from a manga called Axis Powers Hetalia, apparently based on the two 20th century world wars. As there is no official tarot issued with this manga, we can assume that this deck is a self published doujinshi (or fan art) deck. This makes it rather rare. The deck comes in a solid card box and includes a little booklet. In this booklet are shown the original pen drawings on which the tarot card images are based.

Description : Produced by the same artist who created the Stone's Tarot. This is a hand produced deck said to have been made by a Japanese group in 1996, though the cards were obviously printed around 2008, on which I have no information at all, as there is no documentation apart from a short note. The cards have been printed onto soft matt possibly unsurfaced thick card on a high quality inkjet or giclee printer. Throughout the set of 22 Major arcana, a winged dragon appears, to reflect the tarot archetypes. The artwork is diffuse and unfocussed, and the colours softly merge one into another.

There is also a subtext involving the stylised architecture.
Art Medium : Digitally created and finally put through some filter to soften the images. This creates a texture as if these were printed on an inkjet printer with blocked jets, but obviously this effect was created by some digital image processing.

Description : Asuka Fujiwara in her 'Future Secret Tarot' achieves a soft out of focus effect in her tarot deck, by using lightly drawn and painted forms then blotting areas of texture in the background. This is very effective, however, her tarot symbolism is traditional European with no obvious Japanese references. The cards are in the cut out foam box characteristic of Japanese tarot packaging and come with a book in a slip case.

Description : Takashi Kitami is a well-known painter and illustrator with a distinct style for drawing the human figure. His work spans the world of fine art and graphic illustration. He has had many solo exhibitions and much commercial success with his book covers, etc. Kitami's figures are distinctive in that they are elongated with small heads set on long necks. He seems to adopt this style for all his artwork, which makes his work immediately recognisable. Here he creates a tarot in this inimitable style which was given away free with a magazine. The artwork was the basis for his World of Tarot exhibition in January 2005 at the Span art gallery, Tokyo. The images appear to be based on an early French deck, perhaps the Oswald Wirth tarot.

There are apparently nearly forty books featuring Wachifield and its inhabitants, so eventually the publishers must have decided that the time was ripe for a Wachifield tarot. This series of immensely popular books seems to be totally unknown outisde Japan. On the Magician card, we see the mysterious Dayan and on the Lovers card, he is with his friend Marcy, who is a hare rather than a cat.

Description : Created in imitation of traditional Japanese woodblock (Ukiyoe) style from the Tokagawa period of Japanese history (17th and 18th centuries). The Ukiyoe, seemingly the most Japanese of tarots was actually conceived by Stuart Kaplan, the American tarot publisher who has a deep interest in, and knowledge of Japanese art. He asked a number of artists to design a deck in imitation of the traditional Japanese woodblock style from the Tokagawa period (17th and 18th centuries). Unfortunately, he was not happy with any of the designs and after some time got into discussion with the Angel Playing Card Manufacturing Co in Japan, who eventually commissioned Koji Furuta to create the paintings for his cards. Kaplan was actively involved in the designs, which were finally printed in Japan in 1982. They were extensively distributed in the USA and Europe under the U.S. Games Systems’ imprint. The same printing was issued in Japan and the USA but in different packagings. Japanese edition was in a solid box with cardboard sleeve.

Description : Black and white pen drawings are wonderfully stylised, with beautiful flowing lines. The artwork knows European art well, and the drawing style draws on various sources, for example, we note some influence from Aubrey Beardsley. Mondo Oki also quotes from other art tarots in his designs. The cards are in the cut out foam box characteristic of Japanese tarot packaging and come with a book in a slip case. Derakkusu ban Hihou Tarot translates to 'The Wonderful Version of the Secret Method of Tarot' was first issued in 1991. It seems to have been designed by Mondo Oki and Mei Unasaka with the final artwork executed by Kazumi Niikura. Even though it is very Japanese in style one suspects that the artist may have been aware of the pen drawings of Aubrey Beardsley (1872-98).

Description : This was later issued in a negative version, white lines on a black background. In 1896 in France, R. Falconnier and Otto Wegener, designed a tarot deck in an ancient Egyptian style. This was enthusiastically taken up and unashamedly copied by various publishers in the USA during the first half of the 20th century. However, the creator of the Japanese New Egiptian Tarot, chose rather to create his images based on the Rider-Waite deck. The Minor arcana are entirely derived from it but his Majors indicate a familiarity with some of the Falconnier/Wegener cards, or one of its later variants. The Tower clearly appears to have been influenced by one of these earlier Western decks. The New Egiptian Tarot was reprinted in 1996 as a photonegative, reversing the white with black, but keeping the original orientation.

It is uncertain whether the images were created by the artist or they used photographs of existing masks. This is from the same publisher/artist as the Carnevale Tarot and Galaxies Tarot. The cards are laminated with the same sparkly laminate used in the other decks by this artist. In some lighting conditions when looked at face on, the sparkles somewhat interfere with viewing the image itself, but by holding them at a slight angle the sparkles disappear and the picture can be clearly seen.

Description : The strangely named Vitas : Personal Idol Diary Tarot seems even more weird when one realises that though produced in China it has the card titles in Greek! But that is not all for although the alphabet is Greek, these transliterate into either French or English. Is this merely a muddle or is there some subtle message here? We will probably never know. The imagery is rather good, being computer created collage, though the densely textured backgrounds fight against the foreground images and often prevent them standing out. There are some fine images here and though quite stylish the cards are immediately recognisable from their content. The cards are not numbered.

This deck would appear to be an unofficial Chinese release based on the original manga as it reused imagery from those comic books.

Description : Supplied in a transparent plastic box with a large book and a small booklet. The artwork is by a small group of fantasy artists as one can recognise those that are created in the same style. It seems unlikely that the artists created the images primarily as tarot, but that these images have later been chosen by the editor of this tarot deck. The images chosen for the Court cards are appropriate, but there seems no system for the Pips. In many cases the choices for the Major Arcana are appropriate, but others are a bit distant from the idea of the tarot archetype.

Description : This is from the same publisher/artist as the Maschera Tarot and Carnevale Tarot. Each card bears a photograph of an astronomical object. This idea has already been explored by Kay Stopforth in her Universe cards oracle deck of 1999. The Galaxies Tarot attempts to make an entire tarot deck out of astronomical photographs. Some card images work quite well, a comet for 'The Chariot', Jupiter's complex atmospheric pattern for 'The Wheel of Fortune', but with the Minor Arcana it has obviously proven more difficult to assign a photograph of a galaxy, nebula or dust cloud to reflect any meaning associated with the card. So one just has to take delight in the beautiful images themselves. The cards are laminated with the same sparkly laminate used in the other decks by this artist. In some lighting conditions when looked at face on, the sparkles somewhat interfere with viewing the image itself, but by holding them at a slight angle the sparkles disappear and the picture can be clearly seen.
Art Medium : Astronomical photographs.

Description : This deck was issued as a portfolio of large format 'cards' in Taiwan in 2005. This edition, probably unauthorised, was issued as a standard format deck with the cards being slightly cropped to fit the space. Many of the card designs were changed, but using Evan Yi Feng's artwork. Some images also were reversed. The print quality is much lower than the original edition and also some elements of the card designs are obscured by the black panel bearing the card title. Supplied in large box with magnetic catch. A booklet is also enclosed.
Art Medium : Oil paintings often using thin scraped layers to give textured areas. These have then been imported into a computer graphics program and modified with collaged elements.

Description : It is a 22 card deck made using scraperboard, an art board with a chalky white ground and a top layer of black tinted chalk. Thus one scrapes away the top layer to show a white line. It is a very expressive medium though difficult to use consistently, and almost impossible to make corrections. Here Jahne Hope-Willams has produced an astounding set of designs in this unusual medium. She uses the idea of chakras to inform her imagery.

Limited Edition :
Height : 110
Width : 65
Shape :
Description : Lindsay Waterworth is a pagan wiccan and seems also to have some interest in the goth lifestyle, and we catch glimpses of these influences in details of the imagery. However, this deck arose out of a personal tragedy for Lindsay Waterworth. The 'Elliot' of the title was her son, who was born prematurely with a life-threatening medical condition and sadly died after eight months. He spent his whole life in hospital undergoing operations and medical procedures. Out of that terrible experience, Lindsay Waterworth has created her tarot as a kind of memorial to her son, but here we find no descent into maudlin sentiment, and instead a kind of celebration of life. There are only a very few subtle references, which one will not pick up unless one knows what Waterworth had gone through. The imagery is poignant yet never sentimental.
Art Medium : Lines in pen and then large areas filled in by brushing black ink.

Description : The Australian Chester Harris produced his Tarot Chesta in 2002. The line work was created in Lino block overprinted on a number of silk screened colour print layers, some cards having gold and silver ink screen printed. There are 78 cards plus one blank and a face card. The cards are large, measuring 100 by 150 mm, and are printed on quality archival stock. The designs are very expressive with a subtle humour and the strong bold woodcut like outlines (lino blocks) give them a solidity and strength. Chester Harris conceived the designs in 2000 while on a journey of personal exploration travelling around the North and East of Australia. These are definitely an art tarot, involving thousands of hours of work by the artist, and will be hightly valued in the years to come.
