My favorite coffee drinks

8″ x 8″ watercolor, ink and marker on paper. I love all three of these coffee drinks. I believe each one of them has a specific amount and should be served in a specific kind of cup or glass. When somebody serves me a cappuccino in a giant bowl cup, it drives me crazy.My favorite coffee drinks, 8" x 8" watercolor, ink and marker on paper. I love all three of these coffee drinks.

Artist's Tarot by Cynthia Morris

At the suggestion of a friend, I made a set of cards for the suit of cups in Tarot. Tarot is a card game that is often used for divination.
In the Tarot deck, the suit of cups pertains to the water realm, ruling the emotions. My cups suit depicts the emotional journey of creating. Cards one through ten lead us through the creative process and the Royal cards serve as guides. Making this set of cards was fun and I hope you enjoy.

This is the cover I made for the tarot deck I won't likely make. I did enjoy making the cups suit, though, and will share a card every day from that set until it's done. ✨Intro card for the Artist's Tarot.
