Description:

This ATC Self-portrait series I hope to hold every week. Each ATC will be made in a different medium; Painting, marker, collage, crayons, printing, mixed media, and/ or any other ideas you would like to suggest. We have already completed the Colored pencil, Pen and ink, and Painting self portraits.

In this swap, you will make ONE ATC for your partner. The theme this round will be a self portrait. You can take or read the theme anyway you wish but it must be made with markers.

Additionally you must send your partner a small trinket to represent you.

TRINKET - noun 1. a small ornament, piece of jewelry, etc., usually of little value. 2.anything of trivial value.

You don't necessarily have to send a piece of jewelry.. Perhaps if you sew you could send a thimble, perhaps a coin if you collect those. something you hold dear? a very decorative button? your favorite crafting item? a charm? do you bead? just be creative.

The ATC and Trinket are senders choice, but please be mindful for your partners dislikes. You will have one week to sign up and one week to send out your little piece of artwork.

The ATC MUST:

  • be the standard size. ( 2 ½ x 3 ½ inches (64 X 89 mm)
  • be on sturdy card stock, ATC blank or something similar.
  • be something you would like to receive, Please show your effort!
  • be a self-portrait.
  • be hand drawn in marker.
  • be accompanied by a small trinket to represent you.

    I will be looking at all swappers, You must have a 4.9 rating and no recent ones. Newbies are welcome to join with a well thought out profile. I am also willing to Angel any swaps (but I KNOW you wont sign up if you can't complete one simple ATC)

Please remember this is a International swap. some ATC's may take time to get to you.

HAPPY ATC-ing

Forgive me if I sound a little dumb but is freedom of expression ok. Does it have to be a portrait as in face or can it be a representation of you in another way?

you may represent the theme of self portrait as you wish. it must still "read" you. ive also don't self portraits before that wasnt' necessarily my face.
