This one was inspired by my previous female Fool card. It's also done in colored pencils. In these cards I'm trying not to think too hard about the symbolism and just let it come as it wishes. I'm really not sure why she's got a little marionette of (I think) a Duck-Soupian Harpo Marx, but I know her actions are guided by wisdom (the owl).
The other card in this series (so far) is the High Priestess, who is of course, male, though still the High Priestess, since the "High Priest" is literally just the Hierophant, and the meaning of that card is very different from the Priestess.
These are fun to do and are really making me think about gender roles, stereotypes, archetypes, and expectations. A nice challenge.
