What's an ATC/ACEO?

Artist trading cards (ATCs) are miniature pieces of art that are traded/sold around the world. The only official rule for ATCs is the size: 2.5" X 3.5." ATCs that are sold rather than traded are called Art Cards Editions or Originals (ACEO). ACEOs are a cost-efficient way to support the arts and collect pieces from your favorite artists. They're the same size as a baseball card and can be preserved & displayed in the same way - framed, protected by a hard plastic case, propped on a tiny easel, or organized in a special album (a unique coffee table book.)


 About the Painting Process 

The paint is applied directly to my breasts, and is then pressed onto the paper one or more times. I aim to create visually appealing pieces with bold contrast, appealing colors, and a well-balanced composition. Many of the colors I use are custom blended for use in only a handful of paintings - this helps keeps the collection fresh and expansive.

The reverse is titled, numbered, dated, and signed:

Some of these close-up views may be angled to show texture, sparkle, shimmer, iridescence, luminosity, and/or depth. The white background helps me digitally adjust the brightness to more "correct" levels. Differences in monitor settings may still cause (minor) viewing discrepancies.

The artwork in this series is intended to be intimate, whimsical, elegant, unique, and fun. I take great pride in my work and I hope you'll view it in an artistic light, despite my unorthodox painting methods.


 About the Artist 

I'm a well-documented professional artist/photographer, best known for my breast paintings and past collaborative projects with Koopa the turtle (now retired from painting.) My body of work is largely abstract and colorful with neutrals available somewhat rarely. I've been offering fine art breast paintings on eBay since 2001. I'm the first internet-based professional to treat the method as a fine art rather than a novelty/fundraiser/fetish. I enjoy working in different styles and finding new ways to get my medium onto my support. I paint with brushes, palette knives, various body parts, toys (wind-up, RC, etc.) and fruits & vegetables. Familiar mediums include oil, acrylic, tempera, gouache, crayons, cocoa, coffee, red wine, strawberries/cherries/blueberries and melted chocolate.

Much of my work is the result of experimentation with elements, heat, time, gravity and acceleration. My photography is varied - industrial, scenic, macro, long exposure, B & W and/or digitally manipulated. A varied, complementary palette and well-balanced composition are always essential to me.

More about me...

All of my work is fully documented, archived, signed & dated, and preserved to last many years. I'm always available to answer questions for you. I suggest you read my feedback if you have any question about the quality or originality of my work.

These are some of my breast paintings:
