Art
It’s always a great pleasure, too, in
having one of our artists create a
commissioned work that is tailored
specifically to a company’s unique
identity, vision, and needs. As one
example, we’ve been honored to
arrange and supervise the creation of
annual commissions for BB&T, one of
the largest financial services holding
companies in the United States, for
more than a decade now. Smaller
firms we work with may only need one
or two pieces to enhance an office or
foyer. We excel in finding just the
right fit for a space, art that the
client truly loves and is proud to
display, within the budget provided.

Interestingly, the present
unpredictability in the markets
is leading companies and individuals
to seek out more art for their
portfolios as a hedge, as they do real
estate, precious metals, and the like.
Although a gold coin is a lovely thing
to hold and look at occasionally, one
can’t really hang it on the wall or
put it on a pedestal. Art, historically,
not only provides a store of physical
wealth, but it pays back daily
spiritual and psychological wealth as
well—an asset particularly valuable
in times of uncertainty, when it can
be quite challenging to stay positive
and to keep our anxieties in check.
AA: You and Quent seek to promote
“romantic realism” in artwork.
Briefly, what does that mean, and
do you see any positive trends in
the availability or popularity of
such artwork?
