This year, for Inktober, I decided to do a second tarot deck and make it compatible with the original Faux Tarot. If you don't know, Inktober is a drawing challenge that takes place during the month of October with a different drawing prompt each day. You draw, then ink your image and post it on Instagram. A lot of different groups and people have done spin-offs on the concept. I've been doing it for so long, I add my own spin to the challenge like adding lettering, my own cartoon character, Zentangles, or tarot. Unfortunately, some of the prompts are mind-boggling dull so I often pick and choose from some of these other challenges too. This year, I used half the 2026 Inktober prompts and half from the 2025 prompt list.

Once I got all the B&W cards inked, I scanned them and added color in Photoshop then scaled them down to poker card size. I sent them off to the card printing company and I hope to have them in my hands around Thanksgiving. I'll let you know when they are available for sale!
