Playing Card Art: Playing Cards by Montana Knox

Inspired by playing cards and magic, I’ve re-imagined, altered and embellished the 16 court characters, scribbling away on a new series of artwork that redefines the stack as warrior-queens, pugnacious prestidigitators, sword-swinging suits and gravity-defying jacks.

Each piece is hand-drawn, carefully inked and finalized in digital color. Check out pics of the process at montanaknox.com. A new card will be released weekly – should be released weekly. (Art is work.)

Bēhance: Typographic Playing Cards by Michael Lemma

These Optima Typographic playing cards were designed by the American artist Michael Lemma as a project for college. He was assigned Optima type face and had to make playing cards out of the type face. The way he got his shapes and unique look for the face cards was a “happy accident”. Michael hit the align tool in illustrator and got these unique looking shapes. So he played around with different letters & numbers to create an interesting look. The artist decided that red and black colours fit this deck the best.

Michael printed them on cardboard and cut them by himself. But he is going to print them on casino cardboard.
