Artist Trading Cards
Artist Trading Cards, or ATCs, are small (2.5" x 3.5") pieces of art that can be traded with other artists. They can be created with any medium and with any subject matter. The only official rule is the size.
I often use Artist Trading Cards not as a traded item, but in place of business cards when I am meeting other artistic people.
History
In 1997, M. Vanci Stirnemann, a Swiss artist, created 1200 cards by hand as part of an exhibit. On the last day, he invited others to create their own cards and trade with him during the closing reception. The movement took off, and today, there are ATC swaps in almost every major city around the world.- from Strathmore website
