First off.. thanks Tiffany for creating this forum.
I started collecting chinas seriously during the San Marcos era of Hagen-Renaker. At one point in time I probably had every mold in various colors and some in both finishes of glossy and matte!
Now I have a must more modest collection that is made up (primarily) of Hagen-Renaker, Animal Artistry and Horsing Around china, with a few other odds & ends.. 1 RW Quarter Horse, a small collections of BFA Jack Russell Terriers, and Goebel DeGrazia figurines. My passion are the little guys (minis/curio), but I do have a few large scale horses.
I admit to turning my collection often..... I am not a black hole. Time/space/finances dictate that. I try to keep the horses all confined to one cabinet. So you will almost always see me selling something, trading something and buying something else. Horse Trading is one of my favorite hobby pastimes and keeps the post office in business.
I do live show when I can....but rarely travel out of State (Arizona is a big state). I went to Breakables Live in 2015 for the first time and hope to go again in 2019
On a personal level, I am mom to an adult son, and a 17 lb Jack Russell Terrier, Magpie, who I adopted in fall of 2016. I'm employed full time, at least for a few more years.
