Two weeks from today the next installment of The Pulse will begin. I have missed my Sunday postings these last few weeks and thought I would share with you a preview of what is to come.
Collectors Edition
In which your favorite artists share their favorite collection or obsession.
______________________
I am obsessive and compulsive when it comes to collecting. For your sake, I'll share only one for now.
I can't resist little boxes! There are about 90 boxes stored here and many more throughout the house and studio. I've vowed to stop acquiring them. Yeah, right.

I can't get enough of vintage metal picture frames...

My current obsession and collection is of tiny, very old, little bisque dolls. I find a lot of them at the flea market or antique stores. But I don't like to pay too much for them - just a few dollars each. I always think I'll make them into jewelry pieces, but have a hard time parting with them!

Text! I love text in almost any form. I collect old types. And letters from old signs, and alphabet stamps. And I often use text in my collages. And, of course, in my art journals.

Isnt it fun to see what other people collect! then you dont feel so guilty about your obsession! thanks,Seth. you know one of my obsessions!
This is going to be really fun. I also love to see what people collect - and right now I am very glad to see I'm not the only boxaholic.
Love looking at these collections. Funny, but somehow I think any grouping of similar objects put together look super- no matter what they are! Thanks for another wonderful posting Seth!
I have missed them too Seth . looking forward to them. when you get used to a good thing it is hard to do without.
my dollies! i love my dollies - and i love collections; the reason people collecting is fascinating and usually has some sort of beginning with childhood.
thanks for sharing my dolls!

Another Boxaholic here! This is going to be interesting. Looking forward to seeing more.
I have so many odd things I collect I think I would be mortified to photograph them and put them into the public realm! ;D
But surely enjoy seeing others collections of cool stuff!
XXOO~~♥

glass containers ... yes, glass containers ... and JUNK of course!! wish i had a bigger house ... sigh ...i'm glad i'm not the only "hoarder" around :)
Being an avid collector (or maybe I could even be classified as a hoarder????) I am really looking forward to my Sundays with you again.
I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and enjoy the rest of the holiday season!

I love this post, so fun to look at what others people collection.
I love collecting. My little studio like a nest for me.
This post makes me realize that I have many more collections than i realize...except for wood boxes and tables which are a known habit. Looking forward to seeing more...
LOVE looking at other's collections!! @Anne, you would be surprised at how a nice tight shot of a "collection" can make them look so neat!! lol My collections take over a lot of places in my home.
Great fun, I love the type/letter collection.
While I find myself at the point in my life where I'm feeling overwhelmed with all my "collections"...after seeing these I can't help but feel that maybe one more collection wouldn't hurt...
Woeshemana I could sure use a couple of vintage metal picture frames myself!
SWELL!
YAY! Sunday stuff!
This new project is going to be Exciting! I can feel it.
what fun!
just wonderful Seth! perhaps there is a gene that artists share that make us collectors too?!!
This is scary. It makes me want to go out and start collecting. LOL
I guess I do as I have a ton of fabric in long plastic bins in our garage! And I can't resist buttons when I find them.Fun to see what others gather...Love those dolls and monsters! And I like little boxes too. ;-) Thanks for sharing.
Wow. I can't even remember what I collect, but old age tells me it's probably old paper!
ooooh, all those gorgeous frames and dolls and yummies!! and the monsters! those are so very cool!! loving all of these wonderful collections!
