Valentina Badeanu is a Romanian artist. She had the opportunity to create some exclusive decks of cards for Ellusionist this summer. This ace of spades was part of a marine themed deck that never saw the light of day.
But her back design for Ellusionist‘s upcoming (mid-November 2014) Absinthe Playing Cards was approved (see below).
