Victoria Wang gives herself a challenge by creating an illustration series. She put it all together with a graphic illustration series and a collection of artworks unified by a unique theme, in concept and style. The tarot. As she planned this series, she attempted different artistic styles and techniques collecting references research and made a variety of thumbnails. Overall, her goal was to tell a story through narrative with inspiration from anime, mangas, comics, graphic novels, and children's books and even games. Working on multiple pieces at once allowed her to have several pieces in progress at the same time assisting in maintaining consistency and momentum. Learning as you go mentality created space for adaptation to design each illustration and apply it to the next. This allowed the series to evolve organically as Victoria embraced discovery.

Tarot has inspired artists to create countless themed and reimagined original decks. The diversity Victoria sought out in her modern rendition for tarot art include, Dark Fantasy , Gothic and mysterious aesthetic to name a few. Choosing a digital media and Pop art sensibility was a bi-product of this fun stylized work.
