I am a collector at heart.  I enjoy having odd jars of condiments just a cabinet door away.  I love having kitchen gadgets and utensils that I only have reason to use once a year.  But what I most love to collect is art.  I have art stuffed in every nook and cranny of my house. 

As I type, I am watched by a little carving of late artist Bob Ross (click here for image) who came in his own little cigarette box marked “Bob in a Box” part of a series by Bob Snead that included Bob Villa, Bob Dobb and more, whom I met Founder of Redux.  This next show gives YOU a chance to be both collected and a collector!
