Memoirs of a French Garden

Tremosphere

Cover image for Memoirs of a French Garden: In a garden during daytime, a cis white woman is kneeling, a tree and lush green foliage behind her. She has long brunette hair and is wearing a long black dress with a slit showing her left leg. She holding two copper-like water cans and, gently pouring water. She's looking on the left side, afar. The image is meant to be an interpretation of the Star card, from the Smith-Rider-Waite tarot deck.
