I try to find cards that are stunning, spectacular, and inspire me to want to share, these are often cards being sold by someone other than the original artist, but it is the Artist I am trying to “showcase” to show you the talent they have, and to hope that you might want to seek them out, to maybe do a commission, or get art from them directly if they have their own site.
(Yes this is all hand drawn and colored art, one of a kind to say the least!) wow.
Today we are featuring a sketch/art card from an amazing artist: Warren Martineck (Doctor Who) , I truly do enjoy their work , and hope you will too. I do not own any cards of theirs but want too! , and hope you will find reason to own some too! You can find this listed on eBay right now by clicking here.
Thanks for looking.
One of my favorite hobbies is collecting Art/Sketch Cards, also known as ACEO cards in some searches. What is nice about them is that they are the size of baseball cards, so it makes them very collectible, there are artists all over the world that create these. Ways you can find them are through trading card sets, at hobby shows, on eBay where this card is from, or directly from the Artists on their websites. My personal collection is always growing and while I may not be able to add this one to it, I plan to feature more cards here on my site both this way, and some of my own collection in addition to all the great giveaways and other stories coming soon. If you are an artist and or collector and would like to be featured here on the site, get a hold of me, and I would love to talk to you! As always, thanks for being here, and remember to have a great day! Tom.

I never heard of ACEO cards but I just did a search on the web and found some really pretty ones that would look great in a collage frame in my home. Thanks for introducing us to these!

There are ATC’s which are usually traded for free, ACEO’s and Sketch Cards that are sold. You can look up any of those and find them. 🙂 I’ve worked for ACEO Magazine in the past myself and now wish to unite all cards.I am the Founder of ArtCardsUnited. You can find out more about us at http://www.artcardsunited.com
To me as long as they are the same size why not unite them? It’s easy to collect this size. They sell frames, magnets, etc. in 2.5″ X 3.5″ for pocket sized family photos. Just buy the same size, put art in it instead and you’ve got yourself a deal! 🙂 They also have collectable books for baseball cards, they are the same size as well. Really they created cards of this size long ago in keeping these cards alive, you are in fact helping to keep something going that started long ago. I myself find that fascinating! Tom is a great guy!!! I’m sure that he appreciates your complimenting his blog. 🙂
