AATC: ZETTI STYLE ATC

Above photo is one of Dyan Reaveley's creations.

No one has done this type of swap for a while. It's fun and imaginative.

Let's make a Zetti-style ATC. Zettiology, was first created by Teesha Moore, who uses collage to combine fantasy and realistic components with the use of many layers - including newspaper, magazines, drawing, letters, and photographs for her journal pages. The result is usually something quirky, silly, and fun. Although they are fun, Zetti art can sometimes be very confusing to some people as It can be common for the art to depict people with animal or insect parts.

Make your one (1) ATC for your partner with one or more media. In fact, mixed media is best suited for this style of art.

Here are some guidelines from Google to make your own
:
• Quirky art: Original art that blends the ordinary and the fantastic

• Black and white and bright colors: A mix of black and white elements with bright colors

• Whimsical words: Whimsical words or sayings are often used

• Other-worldliness: A feeling of other-worldliness is often present in Zetti style artwork

• Animal and people parts: Animal and people parts are often cobbled together into one form

• Outlining and doodling: Outlining and doodling are often used

• Unexpected details: Unexpected details, such as striped legs or cone hats, are often included
