A&O Acquisitions for 2021: Amir, Cook, Díaz

Image
ALPHA OMEGA ARTS By Ernest Disney-Britton We purchased one painting the year my mother died. The previous year, we acquired 12 works . The purchased work, “The Key” by Raul Arturo Diaz was acquired a month after mom’s funeral. I needed something to reduce the pain. It didn’t help. There were two other acquisitions that were not purchased in 2021. We are grateful to our dear friend Rishard Allen for the gift print of "The Last Supper" by Atlanta artist  Jalen Amir . Another was a 2020 commission completed in 2021, "Tru: The Bond Stands for All Things" by UK artist  Michael Cook . Mom, Verneida Britton, died on Palm Sunday, March 28, surrounded by family.
