Playing card project by Poonam Saini. On Janmashtami ( Lord Krishna’s Birthday) Hindu females in the family get together and play cards to pass the time during the fasting. Poonam Saini decided to create a deck of cards based on Lord Krishna’s and significant characters in his life. Lord Krishna is the king, Radha is the queen, Gomatha is the jack and the evil serpent kaliya is the joker.
The designs are a working progress, he wants to develop the rest of the deck and maybe change the colour scheme and eventually get them printed with a box design.
