ACEO- 082 Can You Hear Me?

Description

This ACEO is an original, NOT a reproduction. It is done on a heavy, lightly textured illustration board with ink, acrylic paint and watercolor. This ACEO is a one of a kind artwork by me and will never be reproduced.

I am doing 100 "themed" ACEOs as a creative exercise. This is theme 82- "Can You Hear Me?" The character is my oldest one, Roanna, who I created many many years ago. When I saw this theme, I was thinking of a "screaming in a crowded room but no one can hear you" kind of situation, which I was trying to convey with the emotion and the blank speech bubble- colored in red for fury and pain.

Card has been signed and dated on the back by me. Please note that the watermark in the second image is NOT on the actual card.

WHAT IS AN ACEO?
ACEO stands for "Art Cards, Editions and Originals". These cards have one main rule - they are 3.5 inches by 2.5 inches - the size of a trading card.

Cards are also sold either as originals or editions. Make sure you know which you are buying! If it is a print it should say so, and it should be numbered and signed, usually on the back.

Art Cards can be a riot! Artists from all over the world are creating, and now selling these little gems in different mediums and of different subjects. Watercolor, Oil, Acrylic, Colored Pencil, Pastels, Pyrography, Pen and Ink, Sketching, Collage - the sky is the limit. Abstract, Surrealism, Outsider Art, Impressionism, Expressionism -every style you can think of - and then some!.

SHIPPING
Items will be shipped in a full-size envelope, sandwiched between cardboard. ACEOs come in a protective plastic sleeve with a clear front and colored back to keep them safe.

Thank you for explaining ACEO :) I've been meaning to ask, just never have.

Great job of conveying the topic, too :)
