Prose on the inside left of card reads (by Josephine Wall):

Pisces
February 19 – March 20
In the twelfth and final house,
all qualities combine
to create the Two Fishes,
Pisces’ celestial sign.
Unimpressed by rank and riches,
Pisces yearns for life to bring
a sense of spiritual unity
with every living thing.
For Pisces dreams the future
and can feel how life could be
if everyone said,
“I will honor in you
the light that dwells in me.”

Prose on the inside right of card reads (by Josephine Wall):

“You are a very special part
of my universe.”

Josephine Wall was born in Farnham, Surrey, England. Her work now is receiving worldwide acclaim inlcuding a nomination at the Arty Awards (the artworld equvalent of the oscars). She works mostly with acrylic paint and has been infuenced by the romanticism of the Pre-Raphaelites, surrealist artists like Salvador Dali and the illustrative work of Arthur Rackham.

From childhood she has had a passion for light and colour, fantasy and visual story telling. Much of the inspiration for her mystical images comes from her close observation of nature and her interest in its preservation. Though she often strives to impart a message in her scenes, she also hopes to inspire in her audience a personal journey into the magical world of their own imagination.

“The art of painting is more than a career to me,” she says, “it is an all consuming obsession and a love of colour and form. In fact, if I am away from my easel for too long I become restless and anxious to paint again.”
