Some recent aceo doodlings for your tasteful eyes to peruse my cockers.

If you haven’t heard of ACEO’s, it’s short for Art Cards Editions and Originals. They’re miniature works of art in any style or media without any restrictions other than the size which always has to be 3.5 x 2.5 inches. Think Collectable/Pokemon/Baseball cards for grown ups (and not so grown ups) and created by professional and amateur artists alike from all over the globe. They started off on EBay but can now be bought from many places around the net. Afordable art for all. A bleddy good idea if you ask me.

Both Captain Jack and I hate wasting stuff. I get a lot of paper offcuts (and expensive paper at that) from the original paintings and drawings when I’m cutting them to size, so being the good boy that I am I have decided to use them up by creating an ongoing series of miniature paintings. They range in size from 1 – 3 inches, are signed and made from top quality materials. Best of all they’re really cheap and available now at The Knocking Shop, although some have already sold.
