Tiny Art With A Big Heart

I have recently got back in to painting ACEOs again (Art Trading Card Editions and Originals). These highly collectable little artworks are always made to a standard size: 6.4 cm x 8.9 cm (2.5" x 3.5"). They are hand painted and can be produced in any medium. They are a great way of collecting affordable original paintings. They can be framed in a traditional way, or kept in albums. My full range of ACEOs can be found in my Folksy shop here​

Etsy Shop

I'm often asked at fairs and markets if I sell on Etsy. Technically I do, though the shop has been inactive for a while. So I have made the decision to start restocking my Etsy shop aand it's already paying off with sales. Check it out here​

I am a Plymouth based artist. I love to create original paintings of the places and landscapes i love, mostly in Devon and Cornwall, but also beyond. I'm particularly interested in the faded beauty of everyday things that surround us and that many of us take for granted.

Chris Stone Artist Newsletter September 2026 Phew! That was a hot one! Summer was never my favourite season, even less so after the ruthless one we've just had! Paint was literally drying on the brush and markets in hot spaces were a bit of an ordeal. Having said that, I had a great time selling to and meeting customers at markets, fairs and exhibitions and I've had fun producing a few paintings. As we look to autumn, I'm looking forward to upgrading my website, hopefully before the main run...
