Andrea Aste Illustrator & Author

John Matthews is the New York Times bestselling author of several successful divinatory systems based on early spiritual beliefs - including the Arthurian Tarot (with Caitlin Matthews), the Wildwood Tarot (with Mark Ryan) and the Byzantine Tarot (with Cilla Conway). Andrea Aste is a multimedia artist, a writer, an animator and a film maker. He was a contributing writer and illustrator to O Magazine, which was the first in Italy to offer, thanks to Aste, augmented reality through its pages. His theatrical credits include Carnival of Animals at the Teatro Regio of Turin. His most recent Tarot deck, The Book of Shadows, was part of a larger, immersive art project that included a film. The Tarot of Light and Shadow is the successor to that project.
