Welcome to the fourth edition of The Pulse -- The State of the Art -- a survey in words and pictures of the online artist community. Nearly 150 artists have answered a list of questions which make up The Pulse. Their responses will be presented as a series of online and print projects. Links to the first four projects (Secret Sunday, The Book Guild, StudioScapes, Viewer's Choice) can be found on the sidebar of my blog.
Collectors Edition is the fifth installment in which your favorite artists share their favorite collection or obsession.

Books...with a special emphasis on architecture and design at the moment.

At the moment I'd have to say that collecting and altering books is an obsession. I never know what I want to do but I start to work on them anyway. I'll prepare them for sketching and painting even though I already have several on the go. I can't pass up books with fun titles that might contribute to the eventual contents.

Pens!

Had to think about this! I don't really collect anything but I do have quite a large paper collection, so I guess you could say I collect papers. But then also I guess you could say I collect junk also! LOL! I scour thrift stores for anything that really "speaks" to me at the time, for use later in an assemblage. This picture is only a glimpse :)

My current painting obsession is my mini-paintings that I call flapjacks. When I finish a few and stack them up, they looked like a stack of flapjacks. They're quick, colorful and people love them!

I collect everything, in multiples . . . dice, doll heads, arms, legs, marbles, buttons, boxes, papers, nuts, bolts, bird feathers, hummm, maybe it would be easier to list those things I don't collect.
_______________
Urban exploration, documenting old abandoned buildings.
_______________
Keys!

One obsession is these wood articulated dolls. I call them theatre dolls and I have been creating theatre scenes beneath their skirts.

I have a few children's drawings hanging on my refrigerator. This one in particular makes me smile.
