This is my second Art Trading Card (ATC or ACEO)!
"Parrot's Eye" is an original work (2.5" x 3.5") in Scratchboard, with Acrylic Paint. The technique involves scratching with an X-acto knife, and painting, numerous layers of each. Very fun, but sometimes time consuming!
This card is SOLD - view other cards for sale at ArtCardsWanted.com - click to view the listing!>
Thanks to everyone who views or comments on this image - I'm having a lot of fun with this ATC/ACEO thing - I strongly recommend it for other artists, if you haven't already tried it! :)
