Integration of Typography and Illustration
This stylized tarot card, titled "IX of Pentacles," blends elegant typography with rich illustration. A woman in a navy dress reaches for a floating orange fruit, surrounded by more symbols of abundance and self-sufficiency. Earthy-toned shapes echo her movement, guiding the eye, while minimal serif text enhances the mystical, vintage feel.
