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.

I'm obsessed sort of with altering Barbies.
_______________
_______________
What I collect to use in my art.
_______________
Wool and felt.
_______________
White The Rabbit with ephemera - I'm addicted to pianting these guys!
_______________
My travel bag for camera and art materials.
_______________
Photoshop and html – I’m using it to bling my blog and to create collage and mixed media images for myself and Etsy.
_______________
My obsession is catching a good flying crow picture on one of my photo shoots of the many flocks ("murders") living around my area.
_______________
I have some major art journal obsession going on. Also can't do enough digital art including digital collages, digital alteration of simple photographs etc. Photography is my most ardent passion and I use my photographs as the basis for many of my projects.
_______________
My current obsession is creating my own reusable graphics for collage, altered books and art journaling.

Horses, it is said, exude strength, power, and beauty. My horse collection has changed from the plastic ones of my youth to the treasures I have found on my travels. I continue to add photographs of horses to my personal image bank to use in my work some of which can be seen on my blog.
