Mini Paintings

Again, because I am short on storage space, I’ve resorted to painting some miniature pieces, and I have to admit that I am smitten! They are so cute, fun and fast to make, I could do this all day!

My mom used to trade ATC’s (Artist Trading Cards) with other artists, and I inherited her book, they are fun and inspiring. I don’t know of any other artists that do that sort of thing, and I certainly don’t need to start another collection, but I love the concept.

Hope you are having a wonderful weekend, be inspired!🎨

    I’ve done ATC’s for 12 years or so and just taught a class most recently in January. I’m always up for a trade. Like you I want to focus on smaller works, storage issues plus personal preference at this point. It’s nice to to make smaller pieces that can take a while even to fill up a shoebox.

      Awesome! I didn’t realize it was still a thing, glad to hear! It sure is fun to work in a smaller scale, and space saving too, my shoe box should fill up fast!!

      What a great idea Kerfe! I often write notes on the back and include them with gift or just as a quick thank you note, but mostly they just get buried in a pile on my desk! 😂

    Are they painted on yellow paper ? Because the yellows stand out and I am loving it.

    They bring to mind vibrant tarot cards, but abstract, of course. 🤓
