Hi friends, thanks for being here today.
I got the idea in my head to make a floral/nature "tattoo" on a cat in collage form, and blended that with the tiny art card (ACEO = art cards editions and originals) I have wanted to try. Going even smaller than my 3x5 cards, which are small for me, this project was interesting to work through and figure out along the way. I don't know if this would be considered a "legal" art trading card, but it is 2.5 x 3.5 inches once you fold it all the way down. There are some struggles with this process and I would probably do some things different if I make another one. Anyway, let me know what you think, or if this has inspired you to make something a little weird and wonky ✨
This week has been a little weird for me. Changes in schedules, spring time allergies and an unwanted critter in the art bus has me a bit out of sorts. I snuffled and sneezed my way through this one (editing those as needed), with the quaint, soft hummmm of the ac in the background. I am missing the birds and the creek too.
thanks so much for watching - Nat
