I have written an article on this subject the February issue of the Leisure Painter magazine. It out now and is available to buy from art shops and newsagents.
A digital copy of the magazine can be bought from Painters Online here
ATCs ( Artists Trading Cards) and ACEOs (Art cards, Editions and Originals) measure 2.5x3.5in and done in any medium. ATCs are made for exchanging and ACEOs for selling. They are popular on internet sites such as Folksy, Etsy or Ebay They
are light to post for trading or selling and are a very affordable way to start
or add to a mini art collection.
On Folksy in the forums there is a daily thread devoted to sharing ACEOs and there is a team on etsy.
There are links to both these sites on the right hand side of this blog.

The front cover is also shown above to give you an idea of some of the other articles.
I particularly like these:
Rosalind Jelbert Ingram demonstrates painting a black dog without using black paint.
Robert Newcombe on some of Edward Wesson's working practices such as drawing with a matchstick or twig.
Pamela Kay The respective eye illustrated with her beautiful still life paintings.
