The painting exudes an air of mystery and enchantment, inviting us into the world of cartomancy - the art of divination through playing cards. The black color palette adds depth and intensity to the composition, emphasizing the seriousness of this ancient practice. Through his skilled brushwork, Roseland masterfully captures not only the physical features but also conveys emotions and stories within each character's expression. We can almost feel their connection as they delve into what lies ahead for our young protagonist. "It's All in the Cards" serves as a timeless reminder that throughout history people have sought guidance about their future.
