Artist Trading Cards


There is apparently a new thing where artists do tiny 3 1/2 x 2 1/2 pictures on cards and trade them. While the "official" information about these say they are to be traded and not sold, some artists of course sell them as well. Since I enjoy doing small pictures, I had to get some of these cards to try my hand at. I have no idea what to do on these but decided to just try a small nude (I know, me doing a nude, what a shock). So here is my first Artist Trading Card (it may get traded or sold, or kept). "Black and Red Nude", Micron pen, Acrylic and watercolor colored pencil on Bristol art card. Picture 51.

  1. Hey Tristan I just got a bunch of tiny blanks from a friend to make these trading cards with. I'm gonna make some of them too. I'll trade you one.

  2. That's a cool idea! And I find it amusing that, for once, the web image is actually larger than the original! :)
