God, Rai, your style just gets better and better. I have to say that these must be my favourite paintings of yours that I've seen. I'm seriously struggling to pick my favourite card, because each of them contains a specific element that I absolutely love.

I love the way you've usedred in each of the cards, especially in view of having 'red as blood' in the first card, because in each of the following images my mind automatically thinks 'red = death', from Narcissa's lie about Harry's death, to Voldemort's death (which I realise is really only broadly implied in the final card).

I could talk about these for hours. They are amazing.

And I've changed my mind - I think I love the Snape card the most.

Lovely paintings! The last one is my favourite, I love the soft colours and the contrasting lines.
Poor, poor Snape - the pic really conveys the horror of his fate.
Narcissa's furtive look is very well done, too.
Congratulations!

Wow, Rai! These are spectacular! I love the look on Snape's face, and the grim set of Harry's jaw. And then Harry's little Converse and Narcissa's calculation ... In fact, I love everything. And their tarot-sense is so strong, too. Between you and leochi, I may have shrugged off my automatic flinching at the word.

Wow! You could definitely draw a wonderful full tarot deck. Snape's face is haunting me (and probably will continue to do so). His hand placement in the blood keeps drawing my attention also (not sure why exactly). I wouldn't have thought of Narcissa for the 7 of swords, but you make it work perfectly. You can see her cunning on her face. Harry is amazing as the magician. The bit of tummy peeking out from his shirt just seems so Harry-ish. The mood you set in these with muted colors and atmosphere is wonderful. And then to pull it all together (so even an observer who doesn't know the story would realize they were related), you even put a window overlooking the forest in the Shrieking Shack, showing the same reddish haze as hangs in the sky in the other two... wonderful!

Cool! There's a hallows symbol on the card. :) Btw, I think I like Narcissa best. She looks like a fairy tale figure. :)
