Tarot. For more information about the deck and to see the rest of the cards: [link]

Queen of Swords - With her blade the Queen of Swords slices through lies and deceptions to the heart of truth. She is honesty and inner knowledge, sending forth her winged seekers into the world. They are an extension of her being and her soul.

The blinding white is the color of purity, honesty, clarity, uncompromised balance; but also of distance, and sometimes death, for sometimes to get to truth one must cast off the old to discard pretense and guile.

The Queen of Swords is an intelligent woman, loyal, witty, and humorous in her forthright way. She is valued for her accurate perceptions of the world around her, and her experiences.

In the language of flowers, purple dragon lilies are symbols of inner strength, and white chrysanthemums of truth.

I love all of these. And I love them even more after I went to your website and could see all of them in their specific groupings. The themes are all so wonderful together and can only be fully appreciated when seen together as well. This may be my favorite of all of the swords paintings --the purples are beautiful.

Yeah, you can't tell the color themes as much when you see them one at a time in scattered order here on dA. :)

Stunningly beautiful, as always. The stark white accompanied by the dots of purple add a nice balance of colors.

:D I am beginning to think that only artists with delicate bone structures can draw this way, based on their prime models; themselves. :D

What word is missing from the following statement?
"The blinding white is the color of purity, honesty, clarity, uncompromised balance; but also of distance, and sometimes death, for sometimes to get to truth one must ________ the old to discard pretense and guile."
