Playing Cards: Blue & White Porcelain

The ‘Blue & White Porcelain’ deck features hand-painted and digitally refined illustrations, inspired by the traditional blue and white ceramics of 14th century China. Thematically, the design references the twelve animals of the Chinese zodiac. The zodiac animals of each face-card were individually hand-painted in watercolor, with their edges digitally refined to create a clean, modern, yet subtly traditional work of art. Pattern like abstractions both construct the face-cards and serve as decorative embellishments to the tuck. The deck's abstract and organic forms also draw inspiration from more contemporary Scandinavian porcelain.

Illustrative elements of both the tuck box and card backs have been finished with spot UV, giving the artwork a subtle gloss and an elegant touch. It is a 2017 recipient of the Red Dot Award
