Fascinated by the discovery of Tarot universe, Velta Emīlija decided to draw her own Tarot cards as a series of large scale watercolor paintings. Like so many artists before her, she started with the characters of Major Arcana. Velta realised these are really strong archetypes who like to be expressed and manifested through painting. They can't wait to inhabit the visible world by the help of yet another artist.
The Magician is the one who effortlessly creates galaxies in a blink of an eye. He also creates his own little world, his sorrows, his joys, every moment of day and night. He is accompanied by a blue water dragon, his guardian and protector. There are tiny flower babies living in water lilies, created by a magical accident. There is a harpy - half woman, half bird, a symbol of Magician's sexuality. The scene is set in moss green, the color of growth and kind heart.
The work is painted on 300 g/m² Arches watercolor paper and is not framed.

Multidisciplinary artist Velta Emīlija Platupe has a special ability to evoke a magical mood in space and plane where baroque splendor allows the beautiful and the eerie to mingle. She graduated with a MA in Contemporary Art from the Ecole Supérieure d’Arts & Media de Caen/Cherbourg in France, and obtained a master's degree in painting at the Latvian Art Academy. Velta Emīlija has been active in the Latvian art environment for more than ten years. Public attention has been attracted by her personal exhibitions ("Proofs of the Official Death of Love", "Forgiveness is Not Possible", "Invertebrates", "Magical Sea Creatures. Wher to Find Them?", "Unveiling for Night Birds") and the visuals of theater performances ("Casanova", "Persian Lessons", "The Tale of Old Death" (nominated 2014/15 for the "Gamers' Night" award of the year) etc.). The artist created objects from different materials which are sometimes difficult to perceive as sculptures or dolls, so as not to create redundant word (too narrow or broad) connotations. Her figures are able to come to life both in the theater and in the exhibition hall, reminding about an important tradition of puppetry in the world and in Europe, which is unfortunately scarcely represented in Latvia. Velta Emilija Platupe says about herself that she can (and does) paint with her whole body, supplementing it with a brush, needle, or other tools if necessary.
