Tarot-The Empress

Tarot- the Empress: creativity, inspiration, nurturing, abundance and fertility. I have chosen to depict her as the great mother, the Celtic Goddess Rhiannon.

Updated and modified 03.04.13, changed goldfinch on the right hand side and the key with my own photos, added the padlock, extended the gown, dodged the shadows on the model's face and added a glow to the spindle and thread.
