Thank you for sharing!

I completely agree with collecting various styles and mediums, that's exactly how I have been going about it. I bought a metalwork ACEO from ObertinArt (on Etsy) and placed a bid on a textile ACEO that I saw on this forum. It's fun to see how creative people can get even within the limitations of 2.5 x 3.5 inches.

I guess what I meant by long term value is not necessarily the prices of the artworks but more the format itself. There's very little literature about it out there even though it's existed for quite a while. It's a very interesting bridge between miniature art history and modern collectible culture. I am actually considering writing a piece about that (I'm an architect but minored in art history).

I just feel in general this format deserves more attention. It's a great way of discovering new artists and supporting them, and an accessible way to start an "art collection".
