Mixed media ACEOs




Welcome once again to the miniature world of affordable art.
Today I thought I would show off a few shops on Etsy that create mixed media ACEOs
I look at some of these and think “Oh wow! They are just great!”
I like seeing ones made all different ways. Some of these are a mix of paint and paper, maybe a digital image or two.

 Sometimes they have sayings or quotes on them.

Whether you like simple or more elaborate, birds or fish, you will be sure to find something that appeals to you. You can have fun just looking and seeing all different styles.

    I love seeing all the different styles and what everyone creates!! It would be cool to have a collection of 15 or so framed in one frame to have up and enjoy!
    You need to do more of these. You know what I mean? :)

    Laurel,
    You are very welcome. I know what you mean about the time, plus they are fun to do and so many ideas can be put onto these little ACEOs

    Great post! Love all the varieties and options that people have with making ACEO's. And yes, like GG has a great idea ~ being able to display a grouping of various works.

    Love it! Nice job JJ.

    Thanks everyone....
    I love ACEOs and the versatility that you get with them.
    VE, that is a great idea, and they could be kept in an album too.

    great job, JJ!

    I could easily start collecting these but I really don't need anything else to collect! I do have a few though, don't tell anyone.

    Can you do a paint by number ACEO?
