Description:
I used to belong to a small group of people who swapped Artist themed ATCs and from that I collected a very beautiful, rare and unique collection of ATCs. This swap will be the first in a series. You will have one partner each and you will create an atc using the style or actual artwork of the artist. These can be collaged or handpainted works of art as long as it is your interpretation of the artists style. Its really a lot of fun and you learn alot about the artist thru research of their works and personalities. Its very cool. Just a few rules have to be followed. This swap is for anyone who has a rating of 4.9. You can't have any no sends in the last 6 months. Please put your best effort into it, don't just glue the artists work on a ATC background. Send what you would want to receive in return. If you have any questions, please send me a direct message(don't leave questions in comment section), this way I can get back to you right away. The goal is to get 12 cards in a series to create your own mini gallery.

I love the idea of this - sounds like fun and I am looking forward to doing this ATC!

@Kimberly3 you should put atc i the swap category, may get more people that way...........I think it would be awesome to do a swap like this and take it a little further,like paint it on canvas..........would you consider doing one like that as well?

I absolutely love this idea and am going to join, but for now am going to put it in my watchlist. Thanks for sharing this idea with all of us.

What a great idea! This will give me the incentive to learn more about each artist and imitate their style- which I have heard is the most honest form of flattery. thanks for coordinating it, Kimberly!

When will we get our swappers name?

bluehighways 07/ 4/2009 #

I would think any time we should be assigned?

It is a holiday weekend, and we have until August 1st to send.

Right but the idea is to see who you are sending to as international it sometimes takes two weeks to arrive or more. Swap-bot use to assign partners after three days if coordinator didn't do it but I guess they don't do it now. Kimberly 3 could be on vacation with the holiday too.

Ok guys, I have to apologize for not assigning partners on the 30th. I just got back in town. Where I was the internet access was very limited. Ugh! So I couldn't assign them early but I have assigned them now. Thanks for hanging in there. Please add a a few extra days to your delivery time. Instead of August 1st, make it August 6th. Again, I apologize. Happy Crafting.
