A new fad that has come through the art industry recently are artist trading cards. Just a simple 2 1/2 x 3 1/2 sheet of white paper, with whatever you desire stuck, painted, pressed, or drawn on it. There are large conventions entirely devoted to trading these trading cards around the world. My art teacher, not to be left out, has commissioned all of her art students to paint, draw, and create the best trading cards we can think of. I have started quite a collection of the trading cards and felt compelled to make more after seeing how horrible my previous ones were. This trading card was created somewhere in the wee hours of the morning. I don't even know what kind of cat it is, thanks to my poor memory. I used watercolor pencils and watercolors on this guy, with the spectacular help of my white gel pen for his whiskers and eyes.
