This week everyone who participated in the Umbral Wings Dragon Tarot Deck is able to publicly reveal their full card art!

So here's the final art for my tarot card contribution, the Nine of Fire (Nine of Wands equivalent)!

This card speaks to standing strong in the face of adversity and exhaustion, ready to push through to the finish line. Upright it says that you are so, so close, and can be assured that good things are eventually coming if you maintain your position and keep trying. This absolutely resonated with me personally at the moment, so I'm really grateful to have been assigned something I could pour my honest state of being into. True to form, I struggled with aspects of this piece as well - but in the end, here it is.

I based my dragon design on a greyhound, as they too are made to endure less than ideal conditions before finding hope in the form of retirement to a loving home.

If you'd like this and many other wonderful dragon illustrations in the form of a beautiful foil-stamped tarot deck, there are still nine days left to grab a copy of your own.
