On Art & Cards: An Interview with Jennifer Dranttel of the Nomad Tarot

May 2018: The hard-to-find Nomad Tarot has long been a favourite here at Two Sides Tarot. I cherish my personal copy, and every time I have it in stock in the shop, it gets snapped up within weeks. It's been a little while since this cult favourite deck has been available, but if you've been longing for a copy, your prayers are about to be answered! 

Nomad creator, Jennifer Dranttel, has just announced that, to celebrate the fifth anniversary of this deck, a new edition is on the way, seeking funding now through Kickstarter. Can I get a HELL YES, please?! 

I had a chat with Jennifer about her tarot origin story, her art practice, and what's new with this edition of Nomad. Read on for all the juice!

Tarot Talks Volume XII: An interview with Jennifer Drantel, creator of the Nomad Tarot

September 2016: The lovely navies and whites of Jennifer Drantel’s Nomad Tarot are a great way for me to connect to that transitional phase where summer is almost over and fall approaches. Her use of minimal images helps me to get straight to the heart of matters. This deck is truly a breath of fresh air & a very powerful tool in my Tarot Arsenal. I hope that you enjoy reading about this deck as much as I enjoy working with it.
