The four of diamonds

Macro Mondays. July 18, 2016 ~ Cards.

Happy Macro Monday, my friends!

 

Working as an illustrator since the 1960s, Tony Meeuwissen remains the only illustrator to win the prestigious Gold D&AD award, which he has won twice. On the second occasion, Meeuwissen was given the award for his playing card set, 'The Key of the Kingdom', which he began in the 1980s. This epic project was inspired by traditional, so-called 'transformation' decks of cards. In these sets, each card would be transformed into an image, and Meeuwissen spent three years working on his own visually playful illustrations in order to produce this celebrated deck.

Vachel Lindsay - The Mysterious Cat

 

I saw a proud, mysterious cat,

I saw a proud, mysterious cat

Too proud to catch a mouse or rat—

Mew, mew, mew.

 

But catnip she would eat, and purr,

But catnip she would eat, and purr.

And goldfish she did much prefer—

Mew, mew, mew.
