A spirit song of the dew press.
The galactik trading card oracle complex is a vehicle to promote visionary fantastic art and artists. It features grand master painters from across the world along with a host of emerging artists. Currently there are over 80 artists from 28 countries.
The project seeks bursaries and non-interest loans to give life to the deck. If you are able to help you can contact delvin@crystalandspore.com.
Here is the current development path;
Dew press is seeking support to make a new 6 card microset. This venture is a key step in manifesting the foundations that will enable the production of a full 144 card deck with 100 artists from 32 countries in the not-too-distant future. Once this new microset is completed Dew Press will become an official non-profit and apply for a large arts Grant, intending to end the dependence of the project on no-interest loans. Not only is this a final stepping stone for the project, but it will give me enough stock to ensure effortless payoff of all past debts incurred.
The new microset will feature the oracle and gaming aspect of the project, unlike the last 4 card set which was all free agents. With one card per suite, it will demonstrate the potentials and math of the full oracle deck. The cards will also be totally compatable with the 52 card deck and additions already released. These new shards of the microgallery will include high vibrational production values and art from masters on 5 different continents.

Printed on conscious post-consumer recycled paper with eco style post-plastic laminant, the whole project will be entirely biodegradable.
I have full confidence this project will not only be able to recover any debts it incurs but also to help address past debts the project is still carrying.
I need to raise $5000 to make this project possible.
