This little A.C.E.O. painting was listed in my folksy shop,
and within 2 minutes it was bought and paid for.
In fact the paint was only just dry,
when I listed it.
That sort of thing does not happen very often ,only once before.
Must get going on some more I guess.
My day is made

Excellent Jeanie, it seems these little masters created are the latest must haves. Where did the idea originate? I have seen lots on folksy now.
ReplyDeleteHi Chrissy,thanks for comment.I don't know where the idea originated,must be quite a few years ago.
ReplyDeleteThe people with all the knowledge are on the aceo thread on folksy.I just picked up from there,found my paints and started painting,
The person that started the thread on folksy is
'teabreaks' I believe.She is a wonderful painter herself.
These miniature paintings are very collectable we are told,very popular in U.S.A.
There are thousands of them on etsy for sale.
We are just beginners on folksy,but gathering speed every day now.
You know what they say,'watch this space'

Congratulations on the quick sale Jeanie!! You're having a good week! Something from me to you is also on it's way! ;-)
ReplyDeleteNo wonder such a sweet painting sold so fast! I cannot wait to make a few ACEO's in the Christmas hols!!
ReplyDeleteI was reading up on the subject and think they came about from baseball cards and trading cards, happy Christmas all ♥
That is a super painting...I'd have snapped it up too. Popped over to wish you a very happy Christmas and heartfelt good wishes for 2011. Hope you're not as snowed under as we are here. It was minus 13 degrees this morning how crazy is that?
ReplyDeleteThank you for following and commenting on my blog. I really appreciate all my new blogworld friends and lookk forward to seeing more of these gems of yours in the new year.

It's a very pretty painting and I can see why it sold so quickly.
ReplyDeleteI once listed a knitted mouse in my etsy shop and then went to do the weekly shop at Tesco and when I arrived home, mouse had sold! It does happen but not often as you say. WELL DONE!
