Next New Decks – Three from Beth Seilonen
One of the fabulous new vendors at this year’s San Francisco Bay Area Tarot Symposium was Beth Seilonen of The Cat’s Eye Gallery in Calais, Maine. Beth ventured to San Francisco from her studio in Maine, bringing all kinds of wonderful, hand made, limited edition decks with her!
The first one that caught my attention was the Spirit Eye Arcana:

Click on the pictures so you can see the cards – they’re amazing. The Lovers, Judgment, and The World are particularly well done.

The next one to jump into my hands was the Isabel Snail Arcana. Snails are just so cute! (Our neighbors think we’re crazy – we encourage snails in our yard, and consider it a refuge from everyone else’s anti-snail fanaticism.)

How could I resist those faces?
Irresistible!
The Star and The World are particularly endearing, and The Hermit – Beth’s visual humor is terrific!
*******************
The last one to win my heart was the Symbolically Simplistic Arcana (what I think of as “Flower Power”!):

Aren't they wonderful?
I can’t resist a deck with a good Star card – Beth’s version, called “Wish” in this deck, is touching and real.

They are indeed lovely. After swearing off buying new decks, I went to the website and emailed a price inquiry.
What wonderful vision! Thank you for pointing these out!
Dear Gail – You’re welcome! They are all wonderful. And for the ones I didn’t buy at SFBATS, there’s always mail order. Enjoy
