ALPHA OMEGA ARTS
By Ernest Disney-Britton
Art collecting can be a job, a hobby, or a passion. For the past eight years, Greg and I have channeled our passion for Christianity into acquiring art inspired by the religious imagination. We started off collecting locally, but we also collect works linked to our travels, like this month's cruise in the western Caribbean. The uplifting Neo-pop religious work of
Romero Britto is one of our latest. Titled "Divine Blue," by the Miami resident who grew up in Brazil, Britto combines cubism, pop art and graffiti painting into his style, citing influences like
Pablo Picasso and
Henri Matisse.
