"The Chariot" Framed Earth Pigment Painting

This original painting is from Earthbound Tarot, a 78-card deck I created using handmade earth pigments sourced across New Mexico. Each card in the deck was individually hand-painted using watercolors made from rocks and organic materials that I foraged myself.

This listing is for the original framed painting of The Chariot. The piece is painted on archival paper using handmade earth pigments and is housed in a solid pine wood frame with hardware for hanging. The painting measures 6 × 9 inches, and the frame measures 9 × 13 inches.

About the Card:
Throughout history, the path to victory has never been light. The Chariot symbolizes triumph, but it also serves as a reminder that success often comes at a cost. A horse-drawn cart, stacked high with supplies, represents the weight of ambition and the burden of progress. When the rider reaches their goal, they carry not only their victories but also the heavy load of hard work, sacrifice, and perseverance. Success is rarely effortless. As we celebrate our accomplishments, we must remember the weight we've borne and the determination it has taken to keep moving forward.
