I've found a format that I can actually work within, known as ATCs, or ACEO on EBAY or the web, they are are 2.5 x 3.5" (64 x 89 mm) miniature works of art which artists trade with one another. Artist trading cards have a long history, stemming from the popularity of miniature portraits in the 17th century, and gaining added momentum during the impressionist era. Originally artist trading cards were traded solely between artists so they could study each other's techniques. In some cases the cards acted a advertisements or business cards for artists, with original art on the front and the back listing an informal resume. The Impressionists opened the ATC market to the art buying public when they began trading, or selling, their art cards in exchange for art supplies or room and board. The artwork can be in any medium, and can be an original, in a series or as a limited edition.
