This photograph is the SEVEN OF CLUBS

PLEASE NOTE: The four visible dots are reflections of the light. At the top, there are two Velcro stickers.

The Seven of Clubs features a three-quarter portrait of a person painted in blues and browns to mimic the appearance of fabric stitched together, seam lines adorning all the borders. The design is reminiscent of the well-recognized film character Sally from "The Nightmare Before Christmas".

"The Deck of Cards was conceived by Assouline, who were inspired by MAC Cosmetics' irreverent imaging and makeup artistry. Working with the MAC Creative Team, the idea grew as some of the world's most renowned designers, musicians and artists created unique body designs that became this provocative deck of playing cards. The response was phenomenal. All of the designs submitted were not only original and creative but reflected the individual personalities of the well-known participants." Released as a deck of standard-size playing cards and later as a book collection of the images, portions of proceeds from sales benefited the MAC Aids Fund.
