Storybook-Inspired Album Artwork & Tarot Illustration Series

This concept project explores a collection of illustrated album artwork inspired by the emotional depth and symbolism of tarot cards. Created for an indie alt-pop music concept, the series brings together themes of loss, grief, resilience, joy, and hope through expressive characters and atmospheric storytelling.

The collection features an illustrated album cover alongside three complementary tarot-inspired designs. Each illustration uses detailed character expressions, painterly backgrounds, delicate botanical elements, celestial symbolism, and decorative card borders to communicate a distinct emotional journey.

The visual direction combines the charm of storybook illustration with a contemporary fantasy aesthetic, creating a cohesive artistic identity while allowing each design to tell its own story.
