Minature Art as in ACEOS

 

Not just a plain ordinary playing card. Not a sports card like so many people collect. These are real works of art in the form of a miniature.

What is an ACEO 

ACEO stands for "Art Cards, Editions and Originals". Inspired by the familiar baseball card with sports collectibles, in 2004. It has grown in popularity since then. A group of innovative artists created a variation of the traditional baseball card format called the Art Cards Editions and Original, or ACEOs for short. These can be collected, kept in albums, or displayed in a basket. Also very nice framed.

A Great New Art Site for the artist that wants to promote their work

Two of my mentors 

Catherine Carey was one of my first teachers. I love taking a class with her every so often. She has the neatest sketching classes, many which are held in the Petoskey and Harbor Springs area.

Helga Flower is a very interesting artist. She loves to go beyond the usual and find what is in a painting. She is always trying new and different things. Every workshop you take is a learning experience.
Catherine's blog
I think you will enjoy looking at Catherine's blog. She does such wonderful paintings. I love her sketchbook ideas.
Artist Helga Flower
I have attended many of Helga's workshops. She is a very giving person and I enjoy every workshop I attend. I like her freedom that she expresses in her paintings.

About bjslapidary

Hello world. I'm new at this.  My husband and I have a little lapidary business in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.  We sell minerals and lapidary supplies.  We sell Lake Superior Agates, Petoskey Stones, Greenstones and many other rocks and minerals. 


We also sell postcards, many Michigan.  


I paint and love to do Watercolors.  Just this past summer I discovered carving in soapstone and find it very rewarding.  I hope to venture into this more.
