The High Priestess: Guardian of the Threshold

Exhibited and Sold
As part of ‘Art of the Tarot’ Show at Grey Gallery in Owen Sound, Ontario

The High Priestess

An example of the visual symbolism present in the Rider Waite Tarot deck.

 

The Art of the Tarot Exhibition Call was to interpret a card from the Traditional Tarot Deck. After shuffling my deck the second card in the Major Arcana fell out, the High Priestess. I have been fascinated by thresholds, doorways, and portals for a while now so this was the perfect opportunity to experiment with a portrait that conveys the deeper meanings offered with this card design.


The ‘ The High Priestess; Guardian of the Threshold ‘ was exhibited and the piece sold at Grey Gallery in Owen Sound, Ontario from June 24 - July 29, 2023.
