The Drawing Studio

Originating in 1997 as a collaborative art project by Swiss artist M. Vänçi Stirnemann, artist trading cards are designed for artists to create, trade, and collect miniature artworks outside the commercial art market. The size of a playing card - 2.5 inches x 3.5 inches - artist trading cards can be created using any medium and depicting any subject. Artist trading cards are made and traded around the world by artists of all ages and levels. In this class, students will learn how to cut and prepare their trading card surfaces and will have a chance to make at least one trading card to keep or trade.
