ACEO - Art Card Editions and Originals

ACEO. You might be wondering what it is if you've never heard the acronym before. ACEO stands for Art Card Editions and Originals.

In the simplest terms, an ACEO is an artist trading card with horizontal or vertical size dimensions equal to 2.5" x 3.5".

This blog focuses on the group of more than 30 ACEO artists who have taken their creative pursuits one step further, to create a unique, one of a kind Endangered Species Quilt from reproductions of their art on cloth that have been carefully woven together to create a tapestry unlike any you will find elsewhere on the planet!

The Endangered Species quilt is being crafted to benefit the World Land Trust non-profit charity. 100% of the auction final sales price will be donated to the World Land Trust to purchase endangered Rainforest acreage and conserve it for our future generations. We anticipate the quilt will be completed and ready for auction in October or November of 2008. Please watch the blog for updates.

In the meantime, we've started this blog so you can view each piece of art that has been donated to this project to save the Rainforest, and learn more about why each artist has chosen to utilize their art in an effort to effect change by purchasing Rainforest Land for conservation.
