The first edition was funded on Kickstarter in March of 2015. This was my very first Kickstarter campaign ever. Although I planned out the process very strategically, experience would still prove to be the best teacher. It is now 2016 and its time for the Second Edition. The Blue Orbits have a very deep blue, almost like Lake Tahoe blue. I love how they felt and how they looked. The Blue Orbits have thick borders which I have always loved because I love the retro feel. I received many messages about the deck, some loved the borders, other's preferred slimmer.  Which brings us to... The Orbit Deck: Second Edition. With every Yin there must be a Yang. Heads and tails. North/South. Hot/Cold. This whole time, the Blue Orbits have been missing it's brother. The Blood Red Orbits feel bold and deliver a mysterious vibe all while looking sharp and iconic like it's older sibling. A few things have changed, a few things have remained the same. I have never liked the idea of simply changing the color and nothing else. I think small things should be updated as the Orbit line gets older. After the Reds I will start making bigger changes to the back design. Which means these will probably be the last Orbits to look like this. The future will bring updated colors and updated back designs while keeping the same essence as the original Blue and Red Orbits.

The vast majority of creature designs are unique in the two editions of The Cursed & The Crooked. Combined, the two decks feature a total of 20 different fantasy characters, all richly illustrated with many details. Some are mischievous and dangerous, while others are friendly or even helpful. Everything is alive in the kingdom of The Cursed and The Crooked. The trees, the rivers, the birds and the bees… It will be up to you to judge which creature you’ll want to avoid and which creature you’ll want to guide you. The tucks are manufactured with special colored ‘soft touch’ stocks for a matte look and feel, contrasting the richly embossed metallic foils and extravagant artwork on all sides of the tuck case.

The tuck seals of The Cursed & The Crooked are true standouts, designed in a horisontal sticker format, each featuring the unique number for every deck made. To add to the originality, these seals are going to be positioned at the tuck bottoms. The Crooked edition card backs are borderless and feature a myriad of creatures from the fairytale. This is a design that creates a very unique fan of cards, that instantly blends with the undergrowth of any deep forest.

I am pleased to introduce my latest project - Culturae Animalis.

Culturae Animalis (the cultural animal/animal culture) is a deck of highly detailed, hand-drawn, luxury art playing cards. It is a deck of stunning art playing cards with a beautiful message of cultural respect and environmental and animal protection. The illustration work alone took over six months, with every card, including pip cards, having its own unique design, and each set of suit court cards being one continuous panoramic scene.

Most of my written and illustrated work revolves around themes of nature, wildlife and identity, and this project is no different. Each suit depicts one animal type and one culture.
