·Development Board

Fig.1.1 Development Board

Tarot cards, which originated in Europe, inspired me to determine the theme of this assignment and draw a sketch.I chose the high
priestess cards for my creation.
Then I decided to use a purple-toned color scheme to showcase its mysterious features.

·Background Sketch

Fig.1.2 Sketch board

I chose a solemn scene where a mysterious priestess was conducting divination or prayer. The columns on both sides and the discs behind the figures emphasized the symmetry of the picture. The middle board, which was like three cards, had the symbols of the sun and the moon, highlighting the identity of the priestess.
Additionally, I also added cloud-like textures to the left and right ends of the picture, further enhancing the mysterious atmosphere of the scene.
