As Promised, New Auctions Every 10 Days

Every 10 days or so I post more ACEOs up for auction. The starting bid is $2.99 each. Art Cards Editions & Originals (ACEOs) are small baseball card sized pieces of artwork. The beauty of these is that I can create original ACEOs at a faster rate than I could a canvas piece, and they are more cost effective. With a starting price of just $2.99 more people can afford to bid on these one of a kind drawings and paintings. This also helps me stay in the habit of drawing every day. I always post 7 to 10 pieces every time. The image above is one of the current cards up for bid. To browse my artwork for auction click on the "AUCTIONS" link at the top of this page. Remember to check back every 10 days.

ACEOs are a growing art movement across the globe. If you want proof you can go to ebay.com and search "ACEO" and scroll through the thousands of art cards being sold and collected around the world.

When ACEOs are not sold, but traded they are called Artist Trading Cards (ATCs). There are many websites where trading can take place.

these are just a few

As you can see, ATCs and ACEOs are highly collectible.

An artist that I would recommend collecting work from is Daniel Flores from Los Angeles.

My encouragement to everyone is to try creating a few art cards yourself rather than just collecting them from artists. They are a lot of fun to create and collect, and you will be advancing an art movement.
