Feathers....

This may just look like another sketchbook/studio photo collection, but it is definitely going somewhere as you will see over the next few days!
Like many artists I collect 'stuff' ( junk some might say) snippets and scraps that catch my eye and fill every corner of the studio.As an avid beachcomber, I have,along with an impressive array of shells,driftwood and pebbles, an extensive collection of feathers in my studio,stuffed into jars and pots or tucked in corners.
Lately,feathers are inspiring me to use them to create with.This is definitely just the beginning!

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!
