Curate.

I'm quite enjoying this curating thing. Have I mentioned that? Here's my latest go, for fans of Tommy Tutone (and Jennys, Jennis, Jenis, Jennies, Jennees, and heck, even the Jens and Jenns. Bring Jennifer and Jeniffer, too.)

Treaured!!

This time I didn't curate, but I'm in a treasury!! San Diego's East County team has this awesome treasury, go check it out! HERE!!

Curator

In smaller organizations, a curator may have sole responsibility for the acquisition and care of objects. The curator will make decisions regarding what objects to collect, oversee their care and documentation, conduct research based on the collection, and share that research with the public and scholarly community through exhibitions and publications. In very small volunteer-based museums, such as local historical societies, a curator may be the only paid staff member.
In larger institutions, the curator's primary function is as a subject specialist, with the expectation that he or she will conduct original research on objects and guide the organization in its collecting. Such institutions can have multiple curators, each assigned to a specific collecting area (e.g. Curator of Ancient Art, Curator of Prints and Drawings, etc.) and often operating under the direction of a head curator. In such organizations, the physical care of the collection may be overseen by museum collections managers or museum conservators, and documentation and administrative matters (such as insurance and loans) are handled by a museum registrar.

I like this gig. I think it fits me. Perhaps I have a new plan for what to do when I grow up. Again.

Treasury!

I am officially a curator of my very own treasury! I LOVE the colors of this one, so rich and vibrant and cosy all at the same time. The colors I'd like to have in a home library. When I was making it I was thinking of dark wood, large leather wing chairs and well loved gilt edged books. Enjoy!






Of course I added some of my favorite artists, many who I have in my favorite links list over on the left. Thank you paynesgrey, heatherfuture, calloohcallay, Kerry, and AnnE and the other wonderful artisans included. You are all in amazing company!
