Sophie, I make my own cards and can change the picture on them as I choose. I select a painting which will give me a good detail of the most important part, so that even though the image is quite small it shows my work and style. Some paintings are more complex and lend themselves less to this than others. For maximum impact on a small card, one painting, or a detail from one, is enough. I also have brochures - one has a mixture of adult and child portraits and another has only children, so I can target my audience - and I leave one up by my cards. The idea is that the brochure is for looking at, the cards are to take. I used to give a lot of the brochures away too but found that I got no return so have become more stingy with them since they're expensive.
