The Ace of Spades
The Ace of Clubs (Phoenix of Clubs) designed by the Canadian artist Catherine Maguire (ImperialWhiteDragon). Indices and pips need improvement. Some “clubs” can be incorporated into the picture. But her style is quite interesting, especially for aces.

The Two of Diamonds – Nemesis (Fortune and Retribution)
“In Greek mythology, Nemesis is the spirit of divine retribution against those who succumb to arrogance. The word originally meant “the distributor of fortune”, neither good nor bad. According to some legends, Nemesis produced the egg from which hatched two sets of twins, including Helen of Troy.” ~ Anna
