I love PATs (Pick-A-Theme) Swaps! if you aren’t familiar, PATs are organized swap in which a group of 5 folks all pick their favorite themes. Then, everyone in the group proceeds to make an ATC for each other in their chosen them.
It’s a great way to stretch yourself as an artist. You end up drawing subjects that you would never tackle on your own. It pushes you out of your comfort zone and you occasionally discover that you have a love or knack for drawing subjects that would never have hit your radar.
In return, you get 4 custom-made cards in a theme of your choosing. Does it get any better than that?
I made these four cards for the Summer PAT at www.illustratedatcs.com. They are themed as follows (top left to bottom left, clockwise)
1. Antique Toys – For Inkleaves
2. Eyes – For TabLynn
3. Vintage Science Fiction – For Dina54
4. Wild Hawaii – for Lemurkat
