I was brought on as a card artist for the Borderlands Tarot Project, a fan-made project that produced a fully illustrated tarot deck based around characters, settings, and concepts from the video game series Borderlands. This was a great opportunity to get involved and work on a team with some seriously talented artists and even some of the folks who helped make the games!
I was given the character Patricia Tannis and the major arcana card Death. As a character whose personal arc revolves around loss, endings, and rebirth, I thought her selection for Death was a great choice that gave me a lot to consider.
This was also the first time I was working on a project for print outside of academic reasons, which posed its own set of challenges, but in the end, it turned out to be one of the most rewarding projects I've had the honor of being involved with.
