If you visit Erika's, Akiko's or Mark's blogs, you will see absolutely jaw dropping masterpieces of ACEO. [ Artist's Card, Editions or Originals] Their cards are much sought after and people buy or bid big bucks for these cards. I'm not there yet so I'm still trading them through a group of Artists at Artbistro.com. Here are some of these 2 1/2 x 3 1/2 inch cards I've traded in the past. They were done in watercolor, color pencil and oil.

Sheila, these are terrific. I find the wooden model with partially drawn shadow so clever! Then the cherry is so delicious looking that it makes me hungry.

Trading cards are big with a group of artists in my community too (Denver), as are 'progressive books'. I'm always amazed at what great lengths they go to. I really like your 'small subjects' approach... Cheese-It's! What a design natural!
Also, I wanted to let you know I've decided to start posting a series of Photoshop tips starting probably tomorrow. In reading through comments on many sites, including DSFDF, I see that a number of people might find this interesting and hopefully useful. I invite you to visit and see what you think, and add any questions you might have.
Thanks R! I'll be sure to check it out!
Sheila, what delightful set of ACEOs!! My most favorite is "Benadryl anyone?" Thank god I haven't been needing it for a few years now. I don't know what you mean by you are not there yet.
Thanks for the link to my blog, and to Artbistro.com. :) Will check out this site.
ACEOs are fun to create. Yours are definitely fun to look at! You are such a prolific artist Sheila! Is there anything you don't do? ;)
LOL... I don't sell my stuff yet because I haven't figured out how to do it. Either that, I don't know how to find buyers.
