The Human Touch
Every image is hand-painted, one at a time. Hand-painted art keeps your humanity fed while the digital world unfolds around you. This deck is the bridge.
The Patterns
Before there was an arc(k), there were seven sitting Finches, singing in a rose garden, calling into existence the more beautiful world our hearts know is possible. This deck carries the story of the animals it has met so far.
Birds, mammals, insects, reptiles, fish. Sixty-four animals, hand-painted one at a time. Each one a character in the great story of the change: shadow into glow into light, the same arc your own life runs on whether you've named it or not.
This is a complete deck. Every animal shared a lesson with me. Flip the cards face down and the backs reveal a puzzle, a continuous mural cut into sixty-four pieces, each card holding its fragment of the whole.
The Initiation
Learn the stories. Explore the mirrors. Captain your ship.
Shipping
Orders ship within 48 hours via USPS First Class. Transit time varies once it leaves our hands.
FAQ
Is this a tarot deck?
No. There's no reversed-card system or fixed meanings to memorize. Each animal carries a lesson and a mirror. You bring the question, the card gives you a place to look.
What's the difference between the Standard and Founder's Edition?
The cards and app access are identical. The Founder's Edition is a numbered run of 125, hand-signed by the Captain, and arrives in a hand-stitched Peruvian bag instead of the cotton muslin bag. The Standard Edition is not signed.
Do I need to know the Arc(k) system to use it?
No. Pull a card, read what comes with it in the Arc(k) Deck App, sit with it. The system reveals itself over time, you don't need it upfront.
What's the Arc(k) Deck App?
A digital companion. Scan the code on the insert card and you'll find the full meaning, myth, and reflections for whichever animal you pull, the same words I wrote while painting each one. Deck owners can also unlock the Full Companion: the Work behind each animal, Field Notes, Story Mechanics, and guided spreads for reading two or three cards together. This is a much deeper exploration than the free version on the site.
Will there be more decks?
This is a complete, standalone deck of sixty-four animals. Nothing about the initiation depends on future releases.
What if I'm not happy with mine?
Reach out and I'll make it right. Each deck is made to order, so returns are handled case by case rather than through an automated process.
How long does it take to arrive?
Ships within 48 hours of ordering via USPS First Class. Transit time depends on your location once it's in USPS hands.
