Value Nature Playing Cards

My illustration was inspired by a few of my favourite things, keepsakes from my Mother, Father and my life. I grouped them together based on their common colour schemes and transformed them into this original drawing. The flaming heart at the top was inspired by a round Venetian mosaic brooch, the butterfly a comb, the women also combs. The flying hearts a pair of my favourite creature earrings (hard to explain), the egg a painted wooden egg. The dolphin a key ring, the fairy a beaded necklace pendant. The elephant a zoo key. It started it all really, a green key with orange tag. All artwork and text are mine originally, as none of these drawings resemble the original inspirations.
