Does using tarot cards in collage give you bad luck?

Tarot detail.

When I was working on my Long Series I came across a beautiful set of tarot cards, and I used them in many collages. I’ve always found tarot cards to be very interesting and beautiful.

Someone jokingly suggested it might be tempting bad luck to use tarot cards in a collage, but luckily I’m not superstitious (knock on wood) and I decided to use them in my paintings. When my burns heal from that freak lightning strike I might do some more work with them.

When I was a kid one of my favorite hobbies was building model airplanes. I was happy to find a book about aircraft of WW 2, and I bought it knowing I would use it for collage.

Many pages have been torn from the book and have made their way into my Long Series. Most have been obscured under layers of marks and paint, but some planes still stand out clearly.
