Artist Trading Cards: What are They?

Artist Trading Cards (ATC’s) are miniature works of art created on a 2 ½” x 3 ½” (64 x 89 mm) surface. They are original artworks or small editions self-produced by artists, however anyone can produce them.  There are no restrictions of what art materials or theme you choose, meaning the possibilities for creativity are endless. The idea is that you trade with other people who produce cards, which is a fun way to meet other artists and start your own unique art collection!
