Description
Okay, I know Justice isn't the friendliest of cards (and crocodiles are not the friendliest of critters, especially if you look tasty.) But this has to be my favorite of the assemblage pieces I've created for the Tarot of Bones. I had a vision in my head, and it turned out about as well as I could have hoped!
Yes, that's a real Nile crocodile skull; the feather is from a domestic rooster. Most of the other materials are secondhand, including an old wooden cutting board saved from a thrift store, and a vintage chain. Even the heart was salvaged from secondhand sources.
I propped the jaws open because although I know it won't really show on the card itself (since the photo will be taken straight-on). However, all these pieces will be going up for sale eventually (yes, they are permanent pieces, not just temporary arrangements) and I figure whoever ends up buying this one will appreciate the extra detail.
Anyway, you can read more about this piece and the Tarot of Bones here at the official website!
