Ok, I love Mini Prep and what you’re all posting on Instagram.
I have found, to my delight, that many of my Make Art That Sells students are wacky, loveable, and eccentric. They are collectors.
Today, I want you to photograph any collections you may have. What, you don’t collect anything, you say? Even a bunch of your pencils constitutes a collection.
Here are some of my dolls.

A collection is a grouping of like objects. That can be very broad. Consider your collections of shoes, purses, flower bulbs, candles, pencil cups, journals, bottles of inks.
What I’m going for here is to get you to home in on your own personal style and taste.
Take a look at your collection and reflect upon the following:
Is there a particular color that seems to run through all your objects in the collection?
Is your collection earthy (like tulip bulbs) or metallic (like modern cooking utensils)? Do you tend to like kitsch vintage items like in my photo above? Do you crave elegant, beautiful items? What adjectives would you use to describe your collection’s style?
Can’t wait to see your obsessions!
