Sherwood Art Week ATC Gallery 2017

In our fifth year of Artist Trading Card swaps at Sherwood Art Week, and we continue to have a varied mixture of styles and mediums presented at the networking event.  This year we saw free machine embroidery, origami,  handmade woven paper, mixed media, letterpess, gelatin printmaking, papercraft, screen printing and rubberstamping.

One set of cards added an extra element to the swap; Swap, Tear and Share.  Perforated, folded cards, one half to keep, one half to give away.

Enjoy the gallery of art in miniature.

Sherwood Art Week ATC Gallery 2016



Another successful Artist Trading Card Swap for what is now a firm fixture on the Sherwood Art Week calendar.

Once again artists prepared ten cards (2.5 x 3.5 inches) in their chosen medium, which were viewed at a mini exhibition and networking event,  randomly swapped, then posted out to the artists.  In this swap we had artists take part from Yorkshire and the West Midlands as well as Nottingham.  Our local free school also submitted ATCs for the swap.
