I know several members of the community are into ATC’s (artist trading cards) and was wondering if anyone wanted to get some trades going in this community!? A little breakdown Initiated as a cultural project by Swiss artist M. Vänçi Stirnemann in Zurich in the nineties, Artist Trading Cards, or ATCs, have since evolved into a global trading network with a life of its own. Their premise is simple, the cards must be self-produced works created on a 64 x 89 mm (2.5 x 3.5 in) support to resemble the dimensions of traditional sports trading cards. Let me know if you’re interested in the comments below!

Finally got in the rest of my Ohuhu watercolor pens! I started using them a few weeks ago having a coloring book day with @Maizi. Exe and I absolutely loved them! They had nice saturated color, fantastic blending, and a wonderful brush tip to do wide strokes or fine detail! Easy to use, and mess free if you don’t want a messy studio day! I had so much fun organizing the colors, it gave me energy to dive into some new projects, and experimentation! What new art materials have you had your eye on, and what do you plan on doing with them?

Thanks to everyone who voted in the last poll~ looks like deep-dive technique-focused lessons are the top priority! Let’s narrow it down: What medium or technique do you want to learn FIRST? 👇 Vote below (and feel free to comment with specifics!)

To everyone who showed up for our very first First Saturday community call~ thank you from the bottom of our collective hearts. It means the world to us that you’re here, co-creating this space together. Whether you came with questions, shared your voice, or simply soaked in the vibes, you’re part of what makes The Art Collective International so special. ✨ These Saturday calls are just the beginning~ a space for co-working, reflection, momentum, and creative clarity. We’ll be building from here, so stay tuned for future replays, resources, and more opportunities to connect and grow (together). Until next time, keep creating boldly and living artfully aligned. — With gratitude, Hansheng & The ACI Team ❄️
