I started collecting art by artists of African descent over
ffteen years ago. My frst piece was Mother and Child
by Lionel Lofton. Since then I have collected works by
various artists, including, but not limited to, Annie Lee,
Glen Smith, Lee White, and Bernard Hoyes. The highlight
of my collection is two originals by Andrew Turner (shown
upper right). I am extremely proud of my collection. I
believe that there is much to be learned from pictures.
More importantly, as I matured in my collecting, I found
that my taste continued to develop. Because of my
diverse background and love of people, I gravitate toward
pieces that convey cultural pastimes, traditions and Arts and culture are essential to the African-American
trends. community because they interpret and refect the
hopes, dreams, aspirations and accomplishments
