At my art-related website, Aisling.net, I regularly offer free art downloads.
They’re digital art, or art-related items that I’ve created. You can download them and print them at home.
Here are the links to all the printable freebies at Aisling.net, as of January 2023. All of these are copyrighted, and for your personal use only. (In other words, don’t use these commercially without my written permission.)
[NOTE: Some download links may change. So, I’m sharing the URL of the related article, not the actual download link. If you share this, too, be sure to do the same.]
What You Need to Know
All of these are printables. Most downloads are PDFs. A few are JPGs. (Scroll down for the download links.)
- Sample coloring pages are usually linked from articles about the related coloring books.
- Doll-related patterns are usually linked from their how-to articles.
- Zine-related downloads are usually linked from the related articles.
- Door art and decorative art downloads are linked from their related articles, too.
All of my freebies are copyrighted by me, Aisling D’Art, and should not be used commercially.

Free ATCs (Artist Trading Cards)
Many of these are from an unsettled time in my life, when I decided to spend an hour a day, creating ATCs. Many are 3″ x 5″, which was the popular ATC size at the time.
As I look at these, I remember how much fun these cards were. I may start making them again.
- By the light (R-rated for nudity) – A nude figure and flowers.
- Choose Your View – An ATC with a message.
- Dream (R-rated for nudity)- Faerie themed, with a nude in a woodland setting.
- Everlasting – Eerie image of a little girl with teddy bear.
- Face behind the words – A mix of historical, Asian and feminist elements.
- Spirits in the old saloon (R-rated for nudity) – Inspired by a Texas ghost story.
- Gold Leaf – A card with an illusion of gold. (Also:Gold Leaf – ATC tutorial – How the card was made.)
- Memories – A nostalgic ATC. Also, how it was made:
- New Orleans Foggy Alley – Free Printable ATC

I’ve always loved zines, and want to share them with others. In addition to these downloads, you’ll find several how-to articles at this site, to make your own zines.
