The Mythic, Tarot & Fairy Tale musings of Lisa Hunt

Ghosts & Spirits Tarot offer, the finished Grouse-Shapeshifter and Kyra’s piano recital.

| May 11, 2012

I’m offering a Ghosts & Spirits Tarot limited edition kit numbered 25. As of this writing, nearly 10 orders have been placed by individuals from as far away as Thailand. I’m always excited to put packages of my art creations together for people. For the custom colored-pencil drawings, the keywords so far have included: raven, enchantment, cat, Rainbow Bridge, dreamer and reincarnation…

How do you define Success? – Part 1

| February 17, 2012

I’ve never really thought about what it means to be “successful”. To me, it’s a concept loaded with complexities relative to time, place and personal philosophies. I think most would agree that success serves as a personal measuring device built on how we handle challenges and situations that test our fortitude and will…

Stop the Presses: The press proofs are here!

| January 5, 2012

The transition from 2011 to 2012 was a mix of excitement and tumult. We finally finished our kitchen, with a mere few days to spare before visitors descended on Chez Hunt-Kramerville. During that period of “out with the old/in with the new”–my press sheets for Ghosts & Spirits Tarot finally arrived…

End of Year Studio Hermit News

| December 20, 2011

I just mailed out the last of Holiday orders—drawing right up until the last possible moment to assure delivery of goodies. I can happily report that I have completed and mailed almost 40 Spirit Drawings in the last few months. What a ride and what a great way to keep everything energized in the studio!…

Ghosts & Spirits Tarot going to press!

| October 28, 2011

When the fed ex guy dropped off a fat box from my art director at U.S. Games, my happy dance alarm threw me into a whirl as I quickly tore into its contents. Out came the final Ghosts & Spirits Tarot manuscript, card back designs, card art and the long-awaited cover designs. It is hard to describe how one feels when one first lays eyes on pieces of production, but it is similar to seeing one’s artwork or earned award newly framed and hanging on the wall…

My visit to U.S. Games Systems. What a fun day!

| August 22, 2011

Here I am posing with the legendary Stuart Kaplan, tarot authority and founder of U.S. Games Systems. I enjoyed having lunch with this charismatic genius who has brought so many visionary decks and products to fruition. He knows his stuff! Not only that, but the brownie ala mode that Stuart had ordered for me was the best I ever had…

View from the Studio, birds in the backyard. The majestic beauty of the Great Blue Heron.

| July 1, 2011

I am very lucky to have a lake view from my studio window where I can watch birds frolic, fish and fly. Ducks, pelicans, cranes, egrets, grackles, chickadees, crows, mockingbirds, hawks, vultures, loons, cormorants and a host of other species provide me with a show of flapping wings and glorious calls…

The Fool, the Piano and a Phantom Called Stage Fright

| May 26, 2011

I love the piano. To me, the keys are allegorical. They are emotive, mysterious, scary and can be a girl’s best friend. They can feel hard and cold, slippery and wet, warm and soft–all depending on what is being played and how it’s being played.

Creativity, critters, chaos and the boogie woogie

| February 10, 2011

2011 is turning into the year of the unexpected. Instead of fearing the chaos of what seems like truncated routines, I’m learning how to accept the unexpected and to be flexible. Part of this has entailed taking on projects and creating images that I never thought I’d do: new subject matter, new methods, bold creative assertions and a sense of the spontaneous along the way.
