Description:
This swap basically consists of creating a surreal ATC. This ATC cannot be a duplicate of other famous works that have already been created...such as works by Salvador Dali. You can however, take from a previous work and create your own! This is a 100% spew of imagination ATC swap. Anyone can join with a filled out profile and a desire to swap and make others happy. You will make one ATC for one Partner. (Standard Size 2.5 x 3.5 inches) Self-drawn/hand-made please. You can use any medium (watercolor, pen, pastels etc.) and please make something extravagant and special for your partner to receive. Please do not rate someone with a one if you haven't received their ATC within the deadline-sending international varies from how long you will receive it. I would advise contacting your sender before doing so. Be kind and generous. If you need any other kind of information, please leave a comment below. Let the swap begin!

gah no, why? why do you have to create such a good swap?? I am already signed up to too many lol;) It's going on my watchlist and as soon as I have a spare moment I will try to create an atc:D

Wow! This is a challenge. I will have to watch until I can figure this one out.

This should be fun. I like fantasy, so a step into surrealism isn't too far from it.

Are we not allowed to collage?? As in...use images from magazines etc. That would be what I would want to do... thanks!

@vreyainlove It is actually more of a hand drawn sort of swap. Using images from magazines would in a way, fall under duplicates of famous work as described above...only because they aren't your own creations, though I do realize a collage does take time and effort and can be made 100% unique from yourself, but it still wouldn't be hand drawn.

...perhaps the next one could be a collaged surreal swap?

Sounds awesome! I have made a couple of series of surreal type ATCs, unfortunately they are all collaged. I will put this on watch.

@ereshkigal Darn it. Hmm...The next one I make will be a collaged one, for sure.
