Digging for gold! This post is my own contribution to the Buried Treasure collaboration. Links to each and every participating artist can be found in the previous post on my blog.
This online collaborative process has been held on my blog since 2009. If you want to see what I "dug up" in prior years, you can follow these links:

2012
---------------------------
My choice of post for 2013 was not easy. And in the end, breaking my own rules, I have chosen to link to one post and to re-post a second. Artist prerogative! The thread that links these two posts is community...
First, a link back to a post that first went live on in March 2009. I asked the question that I think is always on the minds of bloggers: just who is it that visits our blogs? The post itself was very brief. The beauty is in the response: 75+ comments answering the question. Well worth a read or a re-read. Wonder if these comments would still hold true today?
---------------------------
My re-post focuses on collaboration, something near and dear to my heart. I chose one of my many collaborative art projects that I completed in 2011 with Bridgette Guerzon Mills and Jen Worden. Called Contexture, it stills reflects my art aesthetic. And I love the fact that I used these pages to experiment and have noticed that several different "techniques" have found their way into artwork that I have completed since.

I look forward to visiting these links! This art so speaks to my me-the chapters of our lives are in the details! These could be story boards-I am so inspired! Thank you
Seth for sharing and all you do :D
I remember this collaborative post. Seems like only yesterday, although so much has happened since this buried post first went live. For one thing, I think you got really FAMOUS!!
It's always fun reliving the past and I look forward to many, many more of these buried treasures.
I love that front cover. It makes me think of time and how our lives are a collage of experiences. Each person's style shows through with the inside pages too.
Ok I just wanted to add:
your chance page and x page are my other favorites:)
Love that cover!
collaboration... yes I agree, near and dear to my heart too... great post and thank you for this wonderful blog hop...
There be gold in them links! Fantastic...and thank you...again!!!
So much to see...so little time!...but worth spending it anyway.
This collaborative piece is so cool - love all the texture and wondering what's tucked into the pockets on the sign-in page. I also read the comments on that 2009 question. Very interesting, especially the feelings of community and the observation that RSS feeds while so hand definitely do remove bloggers a bit from the reader. Off to check out all the links...
What gorgeous collages! So detailed. Love the papers used especially.
I love the idea of collaborative art especially in book form. This is just fabulous so much to look at on each page. I must try and generate or join in a collaborative piece!
this collaboration will always be special to me! I love seeing Contexture again. Is it weird that I miss it?! ;)
... and I actually DO have a site again. guess you can't keep an artist down after all!
Love this collaboration, how awesome each piece is.
I don't know which would be a favorite, but I have time to look and admire.
This has been an amazing day going to each of the sites on the list.
Though spending time immersed in some of the post, which means there are a lot more to go!
Thank you for putting this together!
Amazing Seth..thank you..your blog is one big Treasure to me :)
What a fabulous piece - you know I love texture and layers:) Not surprised you picked this - it's a keeper as are the treasures from the past.
Visual storytelling at its best! Absolutely beautiful.
