📚 Ebook: Ultimate Guide to Artist Trading Card Workshop Collectables Review

I wanted a book with lots of different ideas on how to approach trading cards. Unfortunately, all the maps presented in this book are visually very similar. In addition, many expensive devices and consumables are required to use various background methods. While different backgrounds are good, this book was uninspiring and overall disappointing. If you are looking for inspiration to create different postcards, try 1000 Pages Artist's Magazine. Lots of different approaches and backgrounds.

This book has everything you need to know about Artist Trading Cards (ATC) - history, art techniques, storage ideas, exchange instructions and lots of inspirational images to browse through. Although I'm an experienced artist, I've found some new techniques I haven't tried yet and new uses for my skills. It's fun too! Chances are you're into painting, collage, stamping, sewing, relief sculpting, or some other art form and you have an opportunity to apply your skills in ATC. Please note that…

I bought this book because I was curious about the decorated postcards, as I've made some of them myself and it's not as relevant in France as it is in the US. So I discovered this wonderful "how to" book. The presentation is classic but the art featured within is magnificent. It's really nice art & craft, it really brings something new, although I already have hundreds of books. If you are passionate about postcards, collages, mixed media, scrapbooks, painting or just curious, you will not…

I originally bought this paperback many years ago. I carried it around with me so much, but on a whim I checked to see if a Kindle version was available and there it was! Fantastic book, a true classic. I know the ATC craze is dead in Australia, but the wonderful basic mixed media techniques in this treasure will evolve into an art magazine or larger mixed media pieces. I love this book and look forward to having it on hand wherever I want. The only minor complaint is the amount of oddly…

I've only recently become interested in ATS and collage and this was the first book I bought on the subject. I was looking for a book that had instructions on many techniques, not just some pretty pictures. Well, this book has lots of instructions and lots of beautiful pictures! I've tried a few techniques and can't wait to try more. I'm also glad some methods don't use certain product brands; This can be a problem if you don't find exactly what you're looking for. Some of these ATCs use simple

As an aspiring artist, I have built up a library of illustrations and reference books. The Artist's Trading Card Workshop is one of the first books I bought to learn how to make the small 2 1/2" x 3 1/2" pieces of art now known as ATC. I made a very good choice. Not only does author Bernie Berlin offer you many techniques to help you create different types of artwork, but his step-by-step instructions are clear and easy to follow. It also includes information on using various media to create…

If you're reading this review, you may have already been bitten by the ATC virus. If so, then this is a great first book and certainly a multi-volume addition to your art library. The book assumes that you are already familiar with some of the basic crafting techniques, materials and terms such as decoupage, gesso, embossing, foiling, etc. It uses these terms and concepts with beautifully photographed examples of how they are applied to the creations of various ATC artists. . You'll get new…
