Victoria Fomina – Cico Books (Illustration Ltd, illustrator)

She drew each image by hand - acrylic, ink, pen, and coloured paper, paring detail to distill archetypes like the Lovers, Death, Hermit, and Magician into striking, mysterious forms.

The deck and book are designed to complement contemporary green witchery practices, connecting natural magic with visual clarity.
