Divine Inspiration: A WHA Tarot Project

Nola Tarot Card Artist Hi! I’m Nola, a 19-year-old artist currently in college studying illustration and graphic design with a passion for comics. I adore fantasy and found family stories, especially ones with magical worlds that you can’t help but wish you lived in and characters you wish you were friends with—so naturally I fell deeply in love with Witch Hat as soon as I started reading it! This will be my first time participating in a collaborative project of this scale, and I’m very honored and excited for a WHA collab to be my first :D TikTok: @granola.815 Instagram: @granola.815

Introducing Nola, who is a tarot card artist!!✨

Eve Tarot Guide Writer Once upon a time, my best friend begged me to read Witch Hat Atelier… I then postponed it for three years—but we are finally here! I have fallen in love with the magical world of WHA and I am eternally grateful to be part of a project that encourages me to honor it through my passion for writing. Can’t wait for the journey! Twitter @evesbeve AO3: @evesbeve Writing sample: The four young apprentices are far greater than Qifrey could have ever hoped to become. Their strive for learning, venturing; their kind benevolence, their hopes, their dreams, their fondness for magic. Qifrey wishes nothing more but for them to hold onto them.

Flor Tarot Card Artist Witch Hat Atelier has shaped my art and writing aspirations ever since I discovered it in 2021. I love the found family, the complex world-building, and the humanity of the struggles faced by the characters. …Also a big fan of the “secret third thing” relationships and psychological torment (both mind and theirs). Thank you for having me! Twitter @bunmellos Tumblr: @bunmellos

Simon Merch Artist Hi! I’m Simon, a Los Angeles-based illustrator with experience in visdev/design for animation, editorial illustration, and merchandise design. Witch Hat Atelier was recommended to me by a friend shortly after graduating from art school, and since getting into the series, I’ve had the privilege of meeting so many more awesome people who are passionate about human-made art. I’m deeply inspired by the story’s message of community, collaboration, and creativity, and I am excited to participate in a project that speaks to those values! Twitter @sighfy_ Instagram @sighfy_

Hannah Tarot Card Writer Hi! I’m a student and hobbyist from Canada, and I’m so looking forward to being a part of this zine. I love both Witch Hat Atelier and writing, so this is my ideal project! I’ll be working on the My Light WHA Zine alongside this one; I’ve never participated in a zine before these two concurrent projects, so I’m very excited. Twitter @arklaums Tumblr @eruzed Writing sample: the spell inscribed inside the pouch projected into the room until the entire space was engulfed in a huge sphere of light. Coco looked around, veritable awe in her expression. The glow that now filled the room, reflected the beautiful patterns of the spell Agott had drawn—triangles and lines and swirls were lit up against the floor and ceiling. And from that circle of light emanated soft waves of brightness pulsing toward the ceiling. This meant the next part of the spell was starting. Just as Agott had drawn, small circles of light started rising up from the floor of their shared room. There were hundreds of these tiny circles slowly floating up, making their way towards the ceiling— “They’re owlcats!” gasped Coco. Indeed, each small circle was a miniature owlcat, glowing, emanating fine particles of light. Each one danced back and forth as they rose, sparkling on.

Hii, I'm Liz! WHA has a beautiful story and a gorgeous art style, which instantly got me hooked. I can't wait to help this amazing fan project come together! I'm a huge fan of Formula 1 (dramatic car racing), Baldur's Gate 3 (dramatic gay roleplaying video game), RuPaul's Drag Race (dramatic gay people), and xianxia/danmei books (dramatic ancient Chinese gay people). I also like Hatsune Miku, yes, yes…
