Art Doll ACEO


I love this little piece! Entitled 'Autumn' this work includes one of my own hand made clay face cabs,genuine vintage bisque doll's arms, gorgeous fibres and dried,pressed leaf.Currently for auction in my ebay store-CLICK HERE to visit!

What are ACEOs???? ACEO is the acronym for "Art Cards Editions and Originals". An ACEO is a small piece of art that can be defined by it's convenient 2.5 x 3.5 inch size. (Standard trading card size)
ACEOs are VERY different from trading cards however, because they are CREATED and traded or sold by artists. All my ACEOs are absolute ORIGINAL pieces of art! (Some artists choose to sell prints of their work -'editions' )

ACEOs are created in any medium available in the art world. Artists are creating them in ALL kinds of styles and varieties. There are no rules limiting the artist, outside of the size dimensions. ACEOs can be framed, propped, used as bookmarks,grouped together in larger frames......use YOUR imagination! Trading Card notebooks, sleeves and holders can all be used to display them.

"Autumn" is a delightful piece! I am always amazed at what can be done with such a tiny format. Wonderful.
