DESCRIPTION

John Broadbent has always had an interest in art - part of his student grant was spent on buying paintings whilst he was at University he likes the way art affects him. John tells Own Art he's made a conscious decision to only collect works by living artists and that it's often the initial visual impact that draws him in. He doesn't worry about where something might go in the house or if it matches the curtains!
