Calling all artists, creators, and enthusiasts! Whether you’re a seasoned pro or just dipping your brush into the colorful world of art, our Artist Trading Card Meetup is the place to be. Let’s connect, learn, and trade tiny masterpieces!
Agenda: Introduction to Artist Trading Cards (ATCs):
- Discover the fascinating history of ATCs—miniature artworks exchanged among artists worldwide. From Picasso to contemporary creators, these tiny canvases have sparked inspiration for decades. - -- Create Dynamic ATCs: Materials Provided: Bristol Paper (for sturdy cards) Watercolor Paper (for those dreamy washes)
- Bring Your Imagination: We’ll explore techniques, themes, and styles. Whether you love intricate doodles, abstract splatters, or whimsical characters, there’s room for all expressions.
- Trading Time: Set up your mini gallery! Showcase your ATCs and strike up conversations with fellow artists. Swap, barter, or gift your cards—it’s all about sharing the love.
- Art Supplies to Pack: Micron Pens (for fine details), Watercolor Paints (let those colors flow), Markers (bold strokes, anyone?), Pencils (sketch your heart out), and Brushes (because every stroke counts)
Open to all! Newbies eager to dive into the ATC world, seasoned artists with a passion for miniatures, and curious souls who want to explore their creative edge. Light refreshments will be provided, feel free to bring a snacky. Remember, there are no rules—just art and camaraderie!
