Artist Susan Hudes was inspired by the beauty of medieval art and mythology while designing the Hudes Tarot. She took advantage of many different resources in creating her images, including constellation charts, old maps and marbled paper. The card, suit and court card names are the same as the familiar Rider-Waite Tarot. The scenes are beautifully rendered with rich colors. Hudes graduated from the Parsons School of Design and is a painter and illustrator. There is a separate companion book for this deck called Wisdom in the Cards.
