Let us introduce you to “**DoShit!**”: the **oracle that three friends created in order to combat creative block.** A self-produced card game made possible by the investment of a generous patreon who believed in us from the start, and in empowering people to Do their Shit.

## **What is DoShit! ?**
**DoShit!** is a card game that guides you in the process of building a creative life. It’s a self-reflection tool when used individually, and also a great conversation starter when played with friends or strangers.
**84 oracle cards** that will help you question your fears, your strengths, doubts, excuses…
DoShit! is a great companion to bring along when meeting your friends or potential collaborators. Both individually as well as collectively, the game can become very addictive once you start asking about your projects and aspirations. Sometimes the cards even lay on you hard truths necessary on the journey to self-discovery
The cards are very intuitive to understand accompanied by a language that sparks profound conversations in a lightweight manner.

Learning how to play takes less than 5 minutes and anyone can attempt to interpret the cards without any previous knowledge (even if it may feel scary at first). In fact, the card readings always benefit from people sharing their own interpretation of the cards.

## **Why DoShit! ?**
As creators, we are very aware of the struggles of building a creative life and also of how easy it can be to limit ourselves, hide behind excuses, let fear win and quit. Our philosophy in response is “Do Shit”, yes, simply **do shit**, even if it ends up being shit… The important thing is to do it! Because when you Do Shit the project no longer dies in idea valley. And the more Shit you do the better you get at doing it, shortening the Gap between your expectations and your Shit.
That is why we created this tool, to accompany every DoShitter in the world on their journey (DoShitters being those who take responsibility for their Shit).
These cards were born at a moment of creative block and search for answers, and we can guarantee this game has helped unstuck many people. It is also a great companion to unleash your creativity and reach beyond your comfort zone!

## **How did it get started?**
The three of us (Mar, Elisabet & Marta) have known each other for years and we’ve always had a shared admiration for each other’s work as well as the desire to do a project together someday.
One afternoon, with no specific expectations, simply wanting to enjoy ourselves without pressure, we started searching for an idea. Elisabet had some blank cards and Mar had been reading about tarot, and the idea simply sparked: we would do an oracle about the creative process with [the structure of the Hero’s Journey](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hero%27s_journey) (a concept that had followed us since we studied film school together) as a backbone. That afternoon, the first prototype of DoShit! was made.

## **The artistic process**
The 84 unique cards were illustrated by Mar Delmar.
Each card is created manually with cut paper and gouache, creating first the different pieces that compose each card, and then placing them together in 3D to take the photo that becomes the final illustration.
The whole process took more than 8 months. Cards were painted and cut up in different locations (Barcelona, Tarragona, Castellar de n'Hug, Porrera y L'Argentera (Catalunya) y Castelo (Galicia)) where Mar attended artistic residencies along with a big box filled with the many octopuses in their envelopes, one for each card… ([Video ](https://www.instagram.com/reel/CkWQWDvj5Ab/?igshid=MzRlODBiNWFlZA==)of the process)
