Hi eveybody!

I am a French Canadian living in the province of Quebec, I have been a web designer since 1999. I came to this forum in an indirect way... I don't play poker and I didn't collect poker decks until recently... I came at this forum because since more than 25 years, I have been playing French Tarot according to the rules of the French tTarot Federation. We are playing my friends and I almost every weekend.
Following my desire to create my own version of a French tarot deck, I discovered in this forum breathtaking designers, such as Jackson Robinson,
Lorenzo Gaggiotti, Kevin Cantrell, Lotrek, Marianne Larsen and several other graphic designers... This is a great stimulation for the designer that I am.

I am currently finalizing a French Tarot deck (absolutly not for divination) but for the game that is played in France... Do ypu know that game attract 5 to 7 thousand participants each year for their National Championship? Following this I have decide to jump in the creation of a French Tarot deck to play!

Greetings to you all!

Sounds interesting. I love the tarot mainly as it gives the artist more opportunity to really express their artistic talent. Although I remember Lorenzo getting quite exhausted with the effort as it was a lot of design work to complete.

I work on this project since march 2023... and yes it's a long process designing 78 cards...
Thank you for your generous welcome!

My French Tarot project, “to play” (not for divination) is progressing quickly, my next challenge is to find an adequate fulfillment service, because my target clientele is 80% located in France... I am not sure I made my task easier with this project; but the crazy pleasure I have playing this strategic game for 30 years is the reason why I implemented the creation of a personalized deck for this game.
