This card is my favorite out of a series where I used a palette knife to scrape the paint onto the paper. I could probably have gotten the same effect using a brush, but I felt the aesthetic quality of using a palette knife to be more enjoyable than using a stick with bristles.<br /><br />Sometimes, the act of creating art is more important than the finished piece.<br /><br /><br />Technorati Tags: <a href="http://technorati.com/tag/ATC" rel="tag">ATC</a> <a href="http://technorati.com/tag/Artist Trading Cards" rel="tag">Artist Trading Cards</a> <a href="http://technorati.com/tag/paletteknife" rel="tag">palette knife</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/30751883-115250739871868980?l=artistcards.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?a=iUxA45OcH9w:cfg4M20t_Cs:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?a=iUxA45OcH9w:cfg4M20t_Cs:63t7Ie-LG7Y"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?d=63t7Ie-LG7Y" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?a=iUxA45OcH9w:cfg4M20t_Cs:dnMXMwOfBR0"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?d=dnMXMwOfBR0" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?a=iUxA45OcH9w:cfg4M20t_Cs:7Q72WNTAKBA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?d=7Q72WNTAKBA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?a=iUxA45OcH9w:cfg4M20t_Cs:YwkR-u9nhCs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?d=YwkR-u9nhCs" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?a=iUxA45OcH9w:cfg4M20t_Cs:JEwB19i1-c4"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?i=iUxA45OcH9w:cfg4M20t_Cs:JEwB19i1-c4" border="0"></img></a> </div>Aaron Smithnoreply@blogger.com0http://artistcards.blogspot.com/2006/07/card-003.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30751883.post-1152246366695869982006-07-06T21:21:00.000-07:002006-07-09T22:23:42.473-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7558/995/1600/atc_002.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7558/995/320/atc_002.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a>I like gesture drawings - they're quick and simple like stick figures (this card took less than a minute to draw), but do a much better job of conveying a person's form.<br /><br />Also, if I had a giant paintbrush I would use it every day.<br /><br />Every.<br /><br />Day.<br /><br />Technorati Tags: <a href="http://technorati.com/tag/ATC" rel="tag">ATC</a> <a href="http://technorati.com/tag/Artist Trading Cards" rel="tag">Artist Trading Cards</a> <a href="http://technorati.com/tag/gesturedrawing" rel="tag">Gesture Drawing</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/30751883-115224636669586998?l=artistcards.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?a=xU27FtFWx74:SeiAru6D1-E:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?a=xU27FtFWx74:SeiAru6D1-E:63t7Ie-LG7Y"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?d=63t7Ie-LG7Y" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?a=xU27FtFWx74:SeiAru6D1-E:dnMXMwOfBR0"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?d=dnMXMwOfBR0" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?a=xU27FtFWx74:SeiAru6D1-E:7Q72WNTAKBA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?d=7Q72WNTAKBA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?a=xU27FtFWx74:SeiAru6D1-E:YwkR-u9nhCs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?d=YwkR-u9nhCs" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?a=xU27FtFWx74:SeiAru6D1-E:JEwB19i1-c4"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?i=xU27FtFWx74:SeiAru6D1-E:JEwB19i1-c4" border="0"></img></a> </div>Aaron Smithnoreply@blogger.com0http://artistcards.blogspot.com/2006/07/card-002.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30751883.post-1152225328926001022006-07-06T15:29:00.000-07:002006-07-09T22:23:10.810-07:00<a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7558/995/1600/atc_001.jpg"><img style="margin: 0px auto 10px; display: block; text-align: center; cursor: pointer;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/7558/995/320/atc_001.jpg" alt="" border="0" /></a>... and so we begin. I'll use all kinds of supplies for my ATCs, but when I use paint I'll often start with a larger paper. Once it's dry I'll cut it down into multiple cards.<br /><br />This card, for example, is my favorite out of a series of 8. I won't bore you by posting the other seven. Even though each card is different, they're all very similar.<br /><br />Technorati Tags: <a href="http://technorati.com/tag/ATC" rel="tag">ATC</a> <a href="http://technorati.com/tag/Artist Trading Cards" rel="tag">Artist Trading Cards</a><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/30751883-115222532892600102?l=artistcards.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?a=AE8gtvB1tnc:q8QlY--7-UM:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?a=AE8gtvB1tnc:q8QlY--7-UM:63t7Ie-LG7Y"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?d=63t7Ie-LG7Y" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?a=AE8gtvB1tnc:q8QlY--7-UM:dnMXMwOfBR0"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?d=dnMXMwOfBR0" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?a=AE8gtvB1tnc:q8QlY--7-UM:7Q72WNTAKBA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?d=7Q72WNTAKBA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?a=AE8gtvB1tnc:q8QlY--7-UM:YwkR-u9nhCs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?d=YwkR-u9nhCs" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?a=AE8gtvB1tnc:q8QlY--7-UM:JEwB19i1-c4"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?i=AE8gtvB1tnc:q8QlY--7-UM:JEwB19i1-c4" border="0"></img></a> </div>Aaron Smithnoreply@blogger.com0http://artistcards.blogspot.com/2006/07/card-001.htmltag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30751883.post-1152216646720380002006-07-06T13:06:00.000-07:002006-07-06T13:10:46.720-07:00This is meant to be a repository of my favorite <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artist_Trading_Cards">Artist Trading Cards</a>.<br /><br />ATCs are meant to be given away, so it's a little heartbreaking when it's time to pass my favorites on to somebody else. By storing them in a digital format I can keep a record of what I've done and still give them away freely.<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/30751883-115221664672038000?l=artistcards.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div><div class="feedflare"> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?a=KhJhGnPjNYU:WW_eLRmsH_g:yIl2AUoC8zA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?d=yIl2AUoC8zA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?a=KhJhGnPjNYU:WW_eLRmsH_g:63t7Ie-LG7Y"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?d=63t7Ie-LG7Y" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?a=KhJhGnPjNYU:WW_eLRmsH_g:dnMXMwOfBR0"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?d=dnMXMwOfBR0" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?a=KhJhGnPjNYU:WW_eLRmsH_g:7Q72WNTAKBA"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?d=7Q72WNTAKBA" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?a=KhJhGnPjNYU:WW_eLRmsH_g:YwkR-u9nhCs"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?d=YwkR-u9nhCs" border="0"></img></a> <a href="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?a=KhJhGnPjNYU:WW_eLRmsH_g:JEwB19i1-c4"><img src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~ff/ArtistTradingCards?i=KhJhGnPjNYU:WW_eLRmsH_g:JEwB19i1-c4" border="0"></img></a> </div>Aaron Smithnoreply@blogger.com0http://artistcards.blogspot.com/2006/07/obligatory-first-post.html
