I've been going to Alameda on Wednesday nights to attend "Art Jam", an artist get-together jam session, similar to what musicians do. It's been really fun and a great boost to my productivity. I've finished several paintings, some that have sat around for years in semi-finished states. Art Jam has also sparked my creativity with new ideas, projects, and potentials shows to develop exhibits.
Here are some Artist Trading Cards (ATC) that I created for an "assignment" at Art Jam. ATC's were created in the 80's by an European artist wanting to introduce himself to artists around the world. The Artist Trading Cards are traded between artists, used to meet other artists, and can be collected as fine art. I made a handcut stamp for this series of ATC.
