Goddess Abundantia Art - Fairies in Art - Try ACEO's or ATC's

 

I need little things around me like children's books with wonderful illustrations and music to fill the air. I need room to sing and dance while painting. Yes! I admit it!

There is an darling avenue for creating your own little artworks that you may not have thought of called ACEO's or ATC's. They are as much fun as scrapbooking.

Discover a foretay of art nouveau and dear little fairies in art. Yes, Goddess Abundantia art, Fantasy fairies and mermaids, legends of goddess and whimsical musicians artwork can be made with this interesting venue called ACEO's.

ACEO stands for Art Cards Editions and Originals. They are also called ATC's which stands for Art Trading Cards.

These collectible miniatures are 2.5x3.5. Original or limited edition art works are lovingly painted with a mixed media which often includes: Gouche, Berol colored pencil, water color pencils, acrylics, iridescent 3-D acrylics, glittering confetti 3-D paints and detailed in pen and ink to achieve the effect each artist is pleased with.

Fantasy fairies, mermaids, whimsical musicians artwork, whimsical angel drawings, feminist surrealism surreal, fantasy art warrior women, Cirque du Soleil influenced, yes a whole wonder world done in 2 1/2 x 3 1/2 art trading cards. Yet don't feel overwhelmed with my ideas, a simple heart or star will do as well.

Often artists post their little creations on Ebay, Etsy or Art Wanted to name a few. You might want to consider collecting whimsical angels, goddess abundantia art, fairies in art, fantasy art of exotic women or a masquerade of circus images to feel the magic.

Do consider making your own though.

Yes! you can to try your own. Just think, it is such a tiny piece of paper and small commitment. Try it you might have a lot of fun.

There are several books that offer tips and ideas, both on collecting the little trading cards and making them, just like with scrapbooking the ideas go on forever.

Creativity is a wonderful friend just waiting for us all to stretch our creative wings and play.
