Love what you do! Have you ever considered illustrating tarot cards?

Thanks! I’ve done some tarot-inspired art in the past, but actually designing an entire deck would be... an insane amount of work, aha. So probably not!

Hey! I have this issue and I am really interested in your opinion and what's your experience with it as an illustrator who use very unique, bold and vivid color palettes. (also studied illustration in college) So, does your device's screen (that you use for making art) show different colors than - for instance - your mobile screen? How do you work with, knowing that different displays might show different colors? Is there any useful trick? Thank you for your answer.

Oh yeah, this is a huge problem for me, especially as a PC user (I’ve been told Macs have standardized color settings and don’t have this issue). I have adjusted the colors on my computer screen accordingly, but I also tend to color-edit my work once it’s done before posting it anywhere. Even after adjustment, my computer screen shows more blue than other displays, so after a piece is done I tend to flatten it and add some additional blue to it in Adjustments>Color Balance so as to compensate. Ultimately what really matters is how the colors look when printed, though, so that is the standard against which I base my edits.
