Good day! I am Paul, the artist behind the Water Margin Playing Cards. I've looked through quite a few Asian or Chinese-themed playing cards and don't feel like I've found any with themes that are top-notch. This inspired me to work on this project. I am a Chinese history buff and I admire the classic Japanese art genre of Ukiyo-e, so I thought it would be perfect to work on a follow-up to my previous successful project, "Battle of Muscles."
