[edit] Creator's comments
"Originaly I didn´t plan to create a deck. It came by accident. A friend of mine asked me to paint one Tarot card for the german Tarot.de forum. I did, and the people liked it. So I painted another one and found it was an interesting project for a painter. Also Tarot was not new for me. I deal with the Tarot already for about 25 years. So it took about 14 month to paint all the cards. "Königsfurt", a german publisher, wanted to publish the cards. But then I decided to publish the deck myself to be able to keep the rights. I´m very surprised about the great interest all around the world."
