What is a mini Autumn Swap you may ask?
Well it involves mini art in the format of ACEOs.
ACEOs aka ATCs are Artist Trading Cards
and measure 2.5 x 3.5 inches.
They can be in any medium any style the only rule is the size.
Well the ACEO team from etsy was holding a swap.
It was real simple - theme, Autumn
& we exchange with just one person!
I was really blessed to get Lee of Watercolors or Else !
She sent me not one, but two beautiful aceo's
and they arrived in a handpainted card!
All are most certainly frame worthy!!
I love the tree and the shadow under the leaves - gorgeous!
My offerings weren't nearly so grand -
a collage made using handmade artisan papers,
"an Autumn Day" is from an old vintage book,
and a genuine maple leaf I saved from last autumn.
this I did in water colors
and I enclosed them in a collaged note card
So thank you very much Lee for being so generous
with your beautiful art
and thanks to the ACEO etsy team for holding this swap!!
