I buy what stimulates my eyes' love of history, form and patina. Be it a subject of one of my still life paintings or a treasure to care for, my head may be turned by blue and white ceramics, Chinese pottery, patinated, painted wood in many forms, early textiles, old silver, painted tin and baskets, iron and gilt. It runs the gamut...no planning...just discovering...my way of 'panning for gold.'Chrishttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15539604374228748842noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010931580827952387.post-88007038295853187842012-03-19T13:08:16.384-04:002012-03-19T13:08:16.384-04:00I love thrift stores and antique store searching/s...I love thrift stores and antique store searching/shopping. I look for pewter, silver and any metal figure...like dogs, horses or roosters. Transferware is a favorite too. So much fun. I've never found anything that was worth much more than I paid for it. :-)<br />Karen at Garden, Home and PartyKarenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08064699521293763744noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010931580827952387.post-32461475814520609162012-03-19T06:56:13.061-04:002012-03-19T06:56:13.061-04:00I read that article about the painting and what a ...I read that article about the painting and what a find!

I always dream I will buy that box of miscellaneous items at an auction and lurking in the bottom will be a long lost treasure :-). A nice dream.<br /><br />You deserved those wonderful comments.
