Creating a tarot deck is quite a task. It is difficult enough to find the time to create the 22 majors but a full 78 card deck can be an enormous investment of ones life energies. Add to that the intention to create this as a series of oil paintings and we are talking years of concerted work. An-Magrith Erlandsen has found a new solution to this problem. She is selling her Tarot of the Pomegranates as an incomplete deck and will send on the remaining cards in batches as she finds the time and inspiration to complete the paintings. Her paintings are wonderfully detailed in saturated colours. She is very creative and comes up with some new ideas for the tarot images. Her Queen of Cups is a powerful engaging image with the head emerging from the waters of a still lake. The Moon card has a astounding picture of a female figure emerging from the dark pool and protecting another figure. The Magician is another amazing image beautifully painted, while her Death card depicts a skeleton form, standing between two shrouded human figures, its bones forming a celtic knotwork, a truly original conception. An-Magrith's paintings are very beautiful. I only wish I could afford to buy one. However, I do have the next best thing - a set of her tarot cards. I have put up her website on my list of other tarot publishers in case you might like to buy a copy from her. It is a signed edition of only 200 and I have number 8.

Dear An-Magrith,

I happened upon your site this afternoon, and I am so amazed my reactions to your art.   They have a living, breathing quality about them. I have been collecting Tarot decks for a few years now, and find in addition to the spiritual journey I get to go on, I've become "hooked" on the artistic value some decks exhibit more than others.  Yours is one of them. Where everything is so instantaneous these days, I look forward to "waiting" for your cards coming in your creative time.   This is a great idea, and I would like to support you in that.

I've joined you on your journey.   I can't wait to show them to my tarot group!

Greetings An-Magrith!

I have received the Tarot of Pomegranate 5 of Cups card, thank you very much!  

You have very effectively captured the experiencing of loss, as something that must be experienced in order to absorb the lessons from the loss.   I like how the card is essentially dark, yet with the dawning of change on the upper horizon.

Above all, Thank you for sharing your vision through your works. It is one of my main goals in the coming year(s) to express and explore my visions through artwork and Tarot, and your work inspires me to do that.

Shine On!...

Kjære An-Magrith,

Jeg har vært inne på dine websider - her var det mye interessant og vakkert. Jeg synes det er veldig spennende kort du lager, og jeg liker veldig godt at du også lager småkortene så detaljerte.

Jeg vil veldig gjerne lage et email intervju med deg til Tarotisten.

Vennlig hilsen,

About the "King of Wands", Nov. 2007

I saw this painting on display last night and it really spoke to me. I've never really researched tarot much, but there was definitely something that drew me to the painting.   I just had an understanding of its intent.

After having read up some more information on the card, I can definitely see the parallels to my own psyche.   I've never really expected any definition or box to accurately represent life, and I don't presume to have any more power then anyone else, but I cant help to but see the connections.

When I saw your paintings this weekend, and there was something about the King of Wands that I really connected with.   The chess pieces, the concentrated stare, the Hebrew writing, the smirk, the fire in the dark/cold.   He seemed to have true understanding, and pure excitement at the fact that he knew what the next move should be.   My friend tried to tell me he was evil, while I tried to explain to her that he was good.   If I was able to own this painting, I'm pretty sure it would be my prized possession for the rest of my life.   I've always wanted to own a piece of artwork that I have an understanding of, something that truly moves me, would be something to cherish.

Hi,

I just want to let you know I've got the Tarot deck. It is exquisite! So
beautiful and powerful deck.

Good luck with the rest of the cards and best wishes for the future,

I was first introduced to An's paintings at Mr. Spots Chai House in Seattle, WA in 2002. I had never felt much for visual art in the past... not that I disliked it, but maybe I never quite related to it. I was immediately struck by the size and lifelike use of colors, and the actual intensity I had not before experienced by standing before a painting. To me her art felt the same that my music felt to me. Her lifelong project has been the painting of a Tarot deck, each painting averaging 5 feet tall, oil on canvas. The images are incredible.

These are amazing! Love your color sense of contrast bringing the images to really pop, and really brings out the alchemical symbology in your graphic storytelling. Vibrant and evocative deck!

Full-on dig the poignant expressiveness in the eyes of your cards. Evocative for sure! Powerfully evocative!

Feel you're going to have great success getting a publisher interested in your deck if you already haven't!

All the Best!
