A new week and a new start on one of my 2008 art goals to create ACEOs. I have been practicing with this small format, and it is a challenge to work this small. Since I first discovered ACEOs I have been intrigued by the concept. Artist Cards Editions & Originals with the only requirement being the size must remain 2.5 x 3.5 inches. An affordable way for anyone to build an art collection.
This drawing is from a winter view off our back deck at sunset. I love the tangle of trees reaching skyward and the brilliant sky behind.

I really like doing ACEOs. They don't take forever and a day to do and surprisingly you can get a lot of detail on the surface even though it is so small.
Very beautiful Ann! I love the colors in this. :)
Ah, lovely trees, Ann! And this is the very best time of year to make the most of them, as you certainly have!
beautiful drawings,leaf and cone flowers just great, lots of time involved. Your trees look so alive compared to the photo posted! Nice work.

Beautiful work as usual. Wonderful color harmony. Good for you for starting in on your goals for the year!

Your lemon is really nice, mine is still sat waiting to be drawn .
Ann- Great perspective and beautiful sky colors and all this captured on a tiny card - awesome!
