Artist Trading Cards

If you have ever stopped into the shop, you know I have a thing for ATCs, or artist trading cards. ATCs are 3 1/2 x 2 1/2 pieces of art. Mine are usually mixed media abstracts, but they can be anything you do creatively-collage, drawing, stamping, painting, printing, etc. If you take a class with me I will teacher you how to add color using paints, inks, spray inks and paper; texture using gesso, modeling paste, embossing machines, layers of paper; and imagery using collage and embellishments. If you come to a Tuesday or Saturday ATC MeetUp, you are welcome to make what you want with your cards (you get 6 blanks each time you come). I have participants who only collage, some who make every card in a different way, and people who paint everything. I usually demo a technique, then let you have at it!
