Aceo's

I have been painting a lot lately, I am not been that well and have not had the strength or the balance ( Vertigo problems) to be able to carry on with my jewellery , just enough to be able to finish the christmas orders.

So when Teabreak a colleague on Folksy started a thread in the forum about ACEO's I was fascinated and so had a go, any way below are a few of my efforts and I have set up a new shop for them at http://www.folksy.com/shops/Wellydoggallery

Anyway I hadn't heard of them before so I thought maybe you hadn't either, so here is the explanation that Teabreak kindly offered us when we started. Have a peep at teabreaks shop on folksy at http://www.folksy.com/shops/teabreaks

ACEO stands for “art cards, editions and originals”
They are tiny works of art that MUST measure 2.5″ × 3.5″
They are highly collectable and were started by artists in the US who liked buying art but didn’t have enough wallspace to hang their paintings on. By buying these tiny artworks, they were able to enjoy original art and display them in photo albums .
An aceo can be any kind of artwork…painting, drawing, collage,print…it doesn’t matter as long as the size is correct. (preferably your own work !)
They are a bit like the football cards that children collect and can be very valuable.
Prices can start at a few pence to many pounds!

aceos

I have just discovered ACEOS , apparently these are highly collectable pieces of art, a way of being able to collect original art without having to find the wall space.They can be drawings, paintings, prints, collage anything goes as long as they are 3.5" x 2.5" They are called aceo (art cards, editions and originals) So I thought I would have a go, its been a while since I got my paint brushes out, so I am a bit rusty, but I had fun, what do you think??
