Discovering Beauty Tarot

Discovering Beauty Tarot – A hand-painted deck for radical self-healing

Discovering Beauty Tarot by Sophia Litwak is a self-published tarot deck born from her MFA thesis in Illustration at the Savannah College of Art and Design. This 78-card deck is both an artwork and a tool for healing, balance, and self-discovery. Each card is hand-painted on a white background with raw ink edges, printed in full color with a matte finish and black matte edges. The deck is dedicated to the dream of a world where beauty and care coexist — where art becomes an act of compassion.

Design and creator

Sophia Litwak is an artist, illustrator, yogi, tarot reader, and educator from Manhattan, NY, now living in Paris with her calico cat Persephone. A Capricorn Sun with Libra Rising and Gemini Moon, she creates accessible, heartfelt art that explores the relationship between healing and beauty.
