The BurnsInHell Tarot is my storm‑lit journey into bone, myth, and gothic symbolism. This deck isn’t bright or whimsical. It’s a shadowed cosmology built from skeletal anatomy, ink‑washed landscapes, and the brutal weather that shapes my life here in Orkney. Each figure has mythic weight and the feeling of stepping out of a storm with something to reveal.

Born From Ink, Bone, and Story The Dark Arcana grows directly out of the worlds I’ve been building for years — my Frankenstein cycle, my skeletal titans, my storm‑haunted landscapes.
I work with:
Anatomy that exposes truth
Ink‑splatter shadows that behave like memory
Wind‑carved terrain that feels ancient and ritualistic
I pull from gothic literature, Harryhausen’s cinematic skeleton battles, island isolation, and the timeless structure of tarot to create a system that feels familiar yet unsettling.

Each card is designed to function both as a reading tool and as a standalone art print. The tall compositions and disciplined framing make them ideal for wall displays and collectors of dark fantasy.

The Dark Arcana is always growing. New storms, new symbols, and new skeletal figures keep shaping the deck. It’s a tarot carved slowly from ink, bone, and Orkney weather — a world I’m still exploring.
