My Latest Venture in Acrylics

Sea Breeze
by Artist Rita Squier

Acrylic Painting
Canvas Size: 10 x 12 inches

Having been inspired by a large painting I created as a Christmas gift, I have decided to create a series of seascapes in acrylics. This series will be done on 10 x 12 inch stretched canvases.

The snowy cold winter has me dreaming of escaping off to a sunny warm vacation by the sea. I can imagine the warm breeze coming off the sea and the calming effect of the cool ocean blues.

A Little Escape to the ACEO Seaside

Seaside I
by Artist Rita Squier

Wouldn't you just love an escape to the seaside right about now? I know I certainly would.

Not only is this an original watercolor painting but it is also considered an Art Card often times called an ACEO or an ATC.

ACEO stands for Art Cards, Editions or Originals. ATC stands for Artist Trading Card. The only requirement for them is the size which is 2.5" x 3.5", the same size as baseball trading cards. They were created for artists to trade amongst each other. Art lovers wanted them too and if they are bought and sold they are considered ACEOs. They are created in pretty much any medium.

All of my ACEOs are original watercolor paintings. This one and more are available in my Etsy Shop: http://squier.etsy.com

Just a warning ... once you buy one, you will want more! It is a great way to purchase a little piece of affordable art and start a collection.
