I am currently using as a deck for my Div III game, a set of Dragon Tarot cards, with text boxes added. Before I take this project out into the world I need original art.

I have dissected the components of a Sample Spell/Manuever card layout, and a Sample Combat card. I can take car of everything but the art, though suggestions are more than welcome.

More details here as I think of them:

The cards will be 2 3/4 inches wide and 3 1/2 tall. Here's a Sample Mat. I've got the original Photoshop file with guides and at higher DPI if you'd like it.
