Magical Realism Tarot
Cheryl Fair is the deck creator. Her photography illustrates each card and she is the author of the instruction booklet. Many creative people were involved with making the Magical Realism Tarot project into a complete deck. Paula Millet designed the borders and backs of the cards and did the graphic layout. Clarke Bedford created the metal sculpture helmets, the pentacle, and the art car that was used as The Chariot. Rae Beth Designs created the headpieces for the Wheel of Fortune card and for all of the Queen cards. Hollie Chantiles painted the face for Death. All of the models are creative people in their own right and include actors, dancers, musicians, tattoo artists, painters, photographers, burlesque performers, comedians and craftspeople. Although Cheryl Fair made some of the costumes, most of the models provided their own costuming and put a considerable amount of thought and effort into their role.
