Over the AP Collection

The purpose of The AP Collection is to collect stories from the people around me. We tell each other stories to learn about and relate to one another. It's the basic way in which we get to know people and build relationships. The stories we create within our own personal network strengthens those bonds throughout our lifetime. I want to collect these stories and create portraits of the people I talk to using their own words and storytelling voice. My focus is mainly on those who are also ‘creative types.’ Actors, comedians, writers, visual artists, and musicians share the common urge to create, share, and reflect upon their craft with the world and I hope to collect a snapshot into their world. This doesn't mean I won’t also sit down with anyone else who has a great story that they really want to tell. Still want to talk? Send an email to theapcollection@gmail.com or message The AP Collection on the ol'Facebook. Twitter is cool... @apcollector

aflevering Chris Williams // Multi-Maker and Artist artwork

Chris Williams // Multi-Maker and Artist

Chris Williams is an artist from New York but also defines himself as a multi-maker, which he defines as a combination of being both multifaceted and a maker. He has a background in biology, and a lot of his work includes themes of life and environment.  Chris Williams talks about his time in Texas, working for a woman who used robotics to save lives after the tsunami in Fukushima, as well as the time he spent in Turkey, which included being in the midst of protest. In Pittsburgh, he has worked on a wooden audio game for the visually impaired ("Coral"), an installation in Lawrenceville that mimics a pier and uses light patterns that interact and work with the environment ("Ghost Pier"), and a simulation of the experience of listening to an 8-9 hour brass music performance in Turkey ("Pittonkatonk"). He also engages in a conversation about the Black Lives Matter movement. View the links below to see more images from the projects.

Lesley Rains // East End Book Exchange

Lesley Rains is the woman behind East End Book Exchange on Liberty Avenue in Bloomfield. Before that, Lesley's love of books and the lack thereof in the city drove her to start something new. The exchange started by setting up bookstalls at community public markets around the city.  In this chat, Lesley discusses her journey to opening her own business, her favorite books, and the need for diversity in the book market.

aflevering The AP Collection // Patreon! artwork

The AP Collection // Patreon!

Selling yourself, or being a working creative has nothing to do with being the best. I will never be the most talented or amazing painter. I am however, one of the most dedicated and determined people you will ever know in just about any field out there.  The AP Collection has always been a journey for me to figure out what helps me create. As of right now, it's listening to people talk about themselves and drawing or painting responses to that. That simple exchange is inside everything that I as an artist have created.  The next endeavor for my practice is to produce work that connects directly with those that are supporting it. For now the interviews and other free things on this site are all the same and always free but for a small amount of support, there's more for those that want it. Patreon [https://www.patreon.com/gbarbee?ty=h] is a way for me to keep drawing—the thing I want to do always. Please check out the site,  pick a level, and help me make more. If you like what I do, share it with others. Below are just some of the things that I've done. I'm stoked to see what's next.

aflevering Rachel Arnold Sager // Illustrator and Designer artwork

Rachel Arnold Sager // Illustrator and Designer

Rachel Arnold Sager is an illustrator and designer. After having her daughter and leaving her job at a design agency to pursue freelancing, she decided to try out new things that scared her, to get out of her comfort zone and take risks. She tried creative writing and improv, to name just a few of the things, and she continues on the path towards the new. Rachel indulges us in her journey navigating through creativity, freelance work, challenging herself, and motherhood. She puts it best when she says (or, quotes Ira Glass), "Your taste level will probably exceed your skill level for a long time." Most recently, she started (and finished) her "100 days" project, consisting of only non-digital illustrations and art works. Rachel emphasizes that the key to growing as a creative is commitment and perseverance––traits she has engrained into her practice.
