Sketchbook Views #2


I had the most fortunate opportunity via an artist friend recently, to attend a live drawing class within a course she is following on a sort of casual 'drop-in' basis as there were enough spaces available-it's a discipline one can never have enough of and finding good models willing to pose is no easy task on a budget!
This is one of the resulting sketches,worked in about 20 minutes(with a couple of false starts!) using conte crayon,chalk and charcoal on tinted paper.The model was fantastic and after quite a intense 2 hours of practising I felt really focussed and inspired to do more-I hope the opportunity comes again soon!

New Artist Trading Cards for the collector in you... ;)

New ACEO designs just added to my ebay store. What are ACEOs???? ACEO is the acronym for "Art Cards Editions and Originals". An ACEO is a small piece of art that can be defined by it's convenient 2.5 x 3.5 inch size. (Standard trading card size) ACEOs are VERY different from trading cards however, because they are CREATED and traded or sold by artists. All my ACEOs are absolute ORIGINAL pieces of art! (Some artists choose to sell prints of their work -'editions' ) ACEOs are created in any medium available in the art world. Artists are creating them in ALL kinds of styles and varieties. There are no rules limiting the artist, outside of the size dimensions. ACEOs can be framed, propped, used as bookmarks,grouped together in larger frames......use YOUR imagination! Trading Card notebooks, sleeves and holders can all be used to display them. BECOME A COLLECTOR YOUR SELF OR BEGIN A COLLECTION AS A SPECIAL GIFT FOR A FRIEND TODAY-THE VARIETIES ARE ENDLESS!
