More Artist Trading Cards done

Two more cards added to the the pile.  We are getting closer to being done..and that is a good thing.  I have several paintings that are begging to be completed.  My progress is always so slow.  I need more time...or I need to have the money to hire someone to clean the house, do the chores and run the errands...and then to cut myself in half so the other half can do the traveling with my husband....

On the Owl I added cold micca chips..so in the sunlight his eyes glitter...it's kind of fun.  Doing the small cards like this give me an opportunity to try out the tons of new mediums, paints, etc that I accumulate like a child in a candy store!

Artist Trading Cards

I accepted the challenge.  30 Artists- 30 Days.  On Facebook someone threw out a challenge and the first 30 artists who accepted were in.  So I went for it.  We do an Artist Trading card every day for 30 days and then we will meet at the Box Factory Gallery in Michigan on Oct. 27th to trade the cards.

Unfortunately I won't be able to trade...and hopefully I can find someone to mail my cards to and swap for me.

It was challenging doing these tiny 2.5 x 3.5 cards.  However I found it great for doing studies.





Here is what I have so far:
