Limited edition Artwork Tarots
I publish a number of exciting tarot designs in small editions signed by the artist of 50 or 100 copies only. This enables the work of tarots artists who cannot find a mass market publisher to get their work into the form of a printed deck. These decks are really for collectors who appreciate tarot as art and they will be well printed and packaged and of interest to the small band of enthusiasts and collectors of tarot. Being an artist myself I try to work sensitively with artists in order to produce a deck as close to their original conception as possible. The edition is small compared with the enormous "limited" editions of some tarots (some, such as the Italcards, as many as 3000 copies!), so these should be very collectable. Because of the high costs involved, most of the decks, certainly in the early stages of this project, will be 22 majors only decks.
Twenty nine decks have been issued as of February 2015. They will not be available through dealers (as it is not possible to discount the price) but only by direct mail order from this website.
I have now returned to tarot publishing using a new production method.
I am actively seeking new artwork for future publications.

The Greater Mysteries Tarot
These 78 tarot designs were created by British surrealist artist Robert Ellaby between 1982 and 1984. He undertook to make these images as part of a course of instruction in Western esoterics, and never intended these as a publicly available deck. I recently persuaded him to let me print this small edition of his designs, as I was very impressed by the imagery and the underlying structure of the deck. The Majors draw on the established images seen through Ellaby's particular focus, but for the Minors he created his own sequence of images, which are repeated with variations through the four suits which he tied closely to the four elements.

The Golden Serpent Tarot
Between 2009 and 2013 Sebastian Haines created a series of oil paintings for his Tarot of the Golden Serpent. These are wonderfully detailed and luminously coloured images, with a deep esoteric content to the symbolism. For each of the cards Sebastian Haines has worked out a complex set of images which he constructs within a symmetric structure. These are not free flowing impulsive paintings but are meticulously worked out, and although dense with imagery there is nothing decorative, every symbol and its placement within the frame of the image contributes to the meaning of the card.

The Original Wirth Tarot
The tarot deck created by Oswald Wirth in 1889 was the first esoteric tarot to be published. Wirth had taken the designs from the familiar Marseilles decks and redrawn these so they expressed his esoteric ideas. The 1889 deck was printed as line engravings then coloured by hand. The colouring of the cards was often messy, with the colour overflowing the lines and often not entirely filling the areas, because the colour was applied using stencils and relatively unskilled labour. I have cleaned up the images, sensitively correcting these flaws, to produce a deck that reflected Wirth's original conception.

W.T. Horton Tarot
William Thomas Horton (1864-1919) was an artist and mystic, friend of W. B. Yeats, part of the milleau of the Golden Dawn and the various esoteric groups existing in the first decades of the 20th Century. He created many line drawn illustrations for books. A few years ago Koretaka Eguchi was drawn to Horton's illustrations and began collecting books he had illustrated and trying to develop interest in this neglected artist. One day when pondering these, Koretaka Eguchi realised that, as many of these illustrations had imagery that paralleled conventional tarot, it would be relatively easy and not at all artificial to construct a W. T. Horton Tarot, indeed the images fitted the tarot archetypes without requiring reshaping or collaging.

The Erotic Tarot of René Marcel Rivière.  
The imagery of the Austrian artist René Marcel Rivière's Erotic Tarot is extremely powerful, surreal and inventive. One can look at one of his images for a considerable period of time and still find one has not seen all the details. For this limited edition the cards are printed as large as was possible in order to do the artwork justice. There are two decks included in the box, the original black and white pencil drawings and the set of coloured images.

Tarot ng Daigdig sa Balintataw by Lynyrd Narciso.  
This is one of the wonderful designs of the prolific Philippine artist Lynyrd Narciso. It bears the title in old Filipino Tarot ng Daigdig sa Balintataw which translates to "The World inside the Pupil" (the black part of the eye). Narciso's art is anchored in strong underlying drawing, which he has coloured with subtle muted tones keyed to a tight palette. He adheres closely to the tarot archetypes, but presents them in a new stylised and entirely coherent manner, especially using leaf and feather forms.

The Goth Tarot by Winny.  
The strong and powerful drawings by Spanish artist Winny, are beautifully and delicately coloured. She explores the Goth theme from a more feminine perspective, and though avoiding the sometimes overly aggressive and extreme imagery we often find arising from artists working with the Goth theme, Winny, nevertheless, is uncompromising in her gaze. Hers is a strong yet engaging view.

Taro by Ithell Colquhoun.  
This amazing esoteric and art tarot was created by the occultist writer and surrealist artist Ithell Colquhoun (1906 - 1988). She was a painter and writer and along with Eileen Agar and Leonora Carrington, was one of the best-known English women surrealists. A friend of André Breton, she was also associated with Aleister Crowley. Her Taro is an example of a kind of abstract surrealism. For each card, she poured enamel paint onto a horizontal sheet of paper, allowing it to flow and mix. Sometimes she swirled it about with the pointed handle of a brush and sometimes she added dots or dabs of paint to emphasise certain features.

Javanese Folktales Tarot by Andhika Wijaya.  
Javanese culture is full of mysteries and wonder. Its sophisticated and elegant forms of art such as Wayang, batik and mask, are well known but the rich tradition of Javanese folktales, which articulate and transmit its mythology and legends and are often the stories used for Shadow Puppet (Wayang) performances, are not known outside the region.
Andhika Wijaya has created this beautiful imagery in luminous forms based on Javanese classic stories. Her colours are wonderfully harmonious and keyed to a coherent set of tones.

Ash achieves a wonderful marriage of vision and skill, neither dominating, and each at the service of the other.

The Rotin tarot is intriguing and enigmatic. It reduces and focusses the familiar tarot images to minimal forms which retain the archetypal structure, indeed, Peter Rotin's artistic condensation seems to have given the tarot arcana even more powerful expression. An amazing black and white deck by this artist based in Malta.

The Alchemical Wedding tarot is a very unusual and powerful tarot deck. Its imagery is strong and disturbing. The artist, David Aronson, uses the tarot form to explore images that are both unsettling and at the same time so beautifully crafted that they engage us and perhaps this is the nature of the alchemical wedding which he is inviting us to join.

The Sylph tarot was created by the american artist, singer, composer writer and translator Tyran Grillo who was born in 1978 in California. He created this deck because he had yet to see a butterfly themed tarot. In addition to this being a personally significant symbol for him, the butterfly, as a symbolic gesture at least, he thinks suits the rather full spectrum of human experience in all facets of life, from the mundane to the esoteric.

Marie-Claude Purro, a self-taught artist, was born on in 1962 in Fribourg, Switzerland. From 1993 to 1994, she lived in the small town of Praia de Mira, Portugal where she painted the 22 major arcanes of the Tarot. She says: "I studied and understood each arcane before painting it. This is how I found treasures of symbolisms about everyone's daily life, experiences, unhappiness, happiness, fears, power, spirituality; every day, one or more cards, 'appeared' to me according to what I was about to say or do. Each of those 22 cards corresponds to a different feeling, a highly enriching experience."
