GOAL
Making a standard set of cards more interesting while still being functional and not allowing each card to become too overwhelming.

The face cards were an opportunity to explore illustrating self-portraits in the same style as the suites.
MY PROCESS
I used many images from the research phase as a reference to illustrate suits and portraits. Also, experimenting with three different versions of each suite allows for more appreciation towards the most ornate suite.
