This is a new pic from "The Stand" in a tarot card version.

So far I have not used spoilers for any of them, even though some depict events from late in the book. I think they are less evident and people could see them and still not realize they are spoiling things.

But this next one definitely is a big spoiler.

This is for the tarot card XVI The Tower.

Spoiler

Sue Stern and Chad Norris (and Nick Andros, sort of).

XVI The Tower, Sue Stern and Chad Norris.​

Upright: Disaster, upheaval, sudden change, revelation.
Reversed: Avoidance of disaster, fear of change.

I'm not very familiar with tarot cards but your cards are amazingly amazing!

I'm not, either, but I had to research each one.

I also did research about the army when I did the General Starkey pic, and about black history in Illinois when doing the Judge Farris pic.

I originally wanted to finish all of them in October, something that seemed pretty doable, if not for the fact this Friday we have our opening night for a play where I act and I have had daily rehearsals. For the next pic I need references for bicycles, so it is not easy to simply draw if I get a little free time (I did a Halloween pic yesterday in such a period).

I hope I can finish the few last cards soon after I get my evenings free again.

Your work shows your careful research as well as your talent. Such nice work.

I used to act in our local community theater. What play are you in, if you don’t mind my asking?

 

[César Hernández-Meraz]

Thanks, Dana.

Of course you can ask. It is Le Bourgeois Gentilhomme, written by Molière.

Ooh, are you Mr. Jourdain? Do you speak the parts in French, Spanish, English? When is opening night?

Ooh, are you Mr. Jourdain? Do you speak the parts in French, Spanish, English? When is opening night?

It's all in Spanish. And it was actually adapted to include modern things (Facebook and Whatsapp messages instead of letters, for instance).

I will be the philosophy master (although "philosophy" is renamed "personal growth").

The opening is this Friday. I expect more free evenings afterwards (except on the two weekends we will be on the play).
