ACEOs, Some Mini Masterpieces and more for PPF

This week I have been busy painting tiny ACEOs in the style of the masters, with a few challenges thrown in for good measure. The theme on 30/30 included International Wine Week and World Goth Day. And the squirrel was for a challenge on DPW to paint a critter.  What a fun week! You can find my art gallery at www.pennyleestewart.com and there are links to each painting for sale. Thanks.

40 ATC/ACEO cards so far and counting

Well, it's official  I am obsessed.  I love to paint these little guys.  2.5 x 3.5 is a perfect size to try out my new techniques, take a stab at a new subject, or just goof around for fun.  Look at the results so far.  If you are an artist and have painted some of these ACEO or Artist Trading Cards, please contact me if you want to trade.  I am making more every day.  I have very little space in my single wide travel trailer, so I  need to keep the work in a manageable size.  This may be going a little too far, but I have purchased little vinyl sleeves for them and am starting to categorize them by subject. 

I also purchased some masonite cards to paint so they can be sold at the art shows I attend.  I thought people might like something more solid than paper, and I don't want to have to frame them.  I work in acrylics usually, but I am going to paint the masonite cards with water soluble oils.
