From the Estate of the late Ron and Anne Dees, Fayetteville, North Carolina
Ron and Anne Dees were longtime collectors, lovers, and patrons of art. Starting in the late 1990s, they began their art acquisition and collection, focusing substantially on contemporary art. Their affinity for art went far beyond simply collecting and displaying. Ron served as a docent at the esteemed Corcoran Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, from the late 1990s into the 2000s. In addition, they were patrons of the DC-area art scene, not only promoting and supporting contemporary artists, but also Ron worked/volunteered at several prominent DC art galleries. They continued their passion for art upon moving to Fayetteville, NC, five years ago and what you see here represents over two decades of devotion to contemporary art.

Los Angeles based Carter Potter creates his film paintings using the "foot" and "head" portions of leader, absent of any movie shots. He received his BA and MFA from University of California Los Angeles. His work is is featured in the collections of the Santa Barbara Museum of Art, California, the Addison Gallery of American Art, Andover, Massachusetts, and the Panza Collection in Lugano, Switzerland.
