CELEBRATE Spring

Celebrate

We have enjoyed a few days of mild temperatures and SUNSHINE so best to celebrate Spring!

I'm off to take pictures of the blooming trees and bulbs to help me make it through our next batch of rainy days (and get a few reference photos for more watercolors).

ACEO Photography


I have noticed a trend of photography ACEO and was interested in how many artists sample their work this way. It seems to be gaining popularity with sellers, but I haven't seen a real jump in the market for it yet. I think it would be pretty neat to get a wallet from potential photographers as a sample of what the prints will be.

I wonder if this size art will transition well to photographer where, lets face it, bigger is better. At least in my opinion. I love seeing my children's faces blown up super-sized on the wall or have a massive framed art piece over the mantle. Will photography become as collectible as my favorite little pocket masterpieces?

I'm not sure, but I love them anyway. If you click on my site you will find some of my ACEO cards for sale and my most recent photography available in the same format. I hope they catch on as a collectible because I believe catching an amazing shot and freezing it forever on film is just as beautiful as recreating it with brush strokes.

I'd love to hear what everyone else feels about pocket photography as a trend.

Thanks for reading. I hope you have a great week and get outside as much as possible in the coming Spring!
