When Creating and Collecting Art Go Hand in Hand
Award-winning local artist Brent Erickson, based in Alexandria, VA, has spent over 30 years building a personal collection of representational art, sparked by a single landscape purchase from emerging painter T. Allen Lawson. Erickson, an oil painter himself, curates his collection—now over 100 paintings and bronzes—around realism and personal passion, displaying works in his Mount Vernon home alongside his own new paintings. He recently hosted a celebration of autumn to unveil both his collection and his latest creations.
