Welcome to my Art Site. I am the Crafty Lady, and I currently live in the San Gabriel Valley of Southern California.

My latest paintings are only 2.5 x 3.5 inches. You can purchase some of them on my sales sites like Ebay and Daily Paint Works. These little gems are so much fun to paint, trade and sell that I may have found a new obsession! Actually, I have been painting them in Acrylics for several years, but now that I have found watercolor and developed my own loose style using fine liner pens for details, I think it's a wonderful way to express my creativity. At least for now!

The ACEO movement on Ebay began some years ago, around 2004. You can read about it here: http://pages.ebay.com/community/chatter/2006March/feature.html.

I participated in Leslie Saeta's 30 Paintings in 30 Days using the theme of Mardi Gras, only ATC size, and bright watercolors, a loose style, and figurative subjects. You can see them all on my Blog. Five of my Mardi Gras series of ACEO's are going to be in an exhibit in May 2013. I sent those to Sissie at Ocmulgee Arts, a full service art gallery and home accessory center in Macon, GA, located in historic Ingleside Village, in case you happen to live there!

There are several Facebook groups online that you can join to help you sell your ACEO cards. (If you sell them they are ACEOs. If you trade them they are ATCs - atcsforall.com is a great site for trading!).
