Collector conversations: Anna P.
LL:
Why is it important, to you, to have art in your space?
AP: I think having art around allows me to escape the more mundane moments of life. My job can be very literal and non-creative, so I like to bring beauty and perspective into my home. And it's pretty.
LL: What drew you to Kevin Brent Morris' artwork?
AP: I love that he took something from nature, a beetle, that I normally don't particularly like or find attractive and made me take a second look. He's able to capture beetle shells' sheen and make them look colorful.
LL: When did you start collecting original artwork?
AP: I've bought photography and maps, but this is my first painting.
LL: What would be in your ideal art collection? Or, what artists are on your collector’s “wish list”?
AP: I'd love to collect from female artists. I've been eyeing the gallery's Logan Ledford and Allison Jamespieces!
