Reese Witherspoon celebrated Women’s History Month at an exhibtion of Ashley Longshore’s feminist portrait series

Artist Ashley Longshore has a fan in Reese Witherspoon.

The “Morning Show” star attended the pop art provocateur’s ROAR! portrait series in Nashville this week, and we’re told she was keenly attentive to Longshore’s strokes.

“Reese was extremely interested in her work and technique, going from piece to piece, examining every brushtroke and fabric placement,” a spy told Page Six.

The New York-based artist collaborated with Live Nation Women and brought her portrait series to Saint Elle, an event space in the country music capital.

Longshore showed 73 pieces, including portraits of Nashville icons like Dolly Parton, Minnie Pearl and Taylor Swift, as well as Mary J. Blige, Rihanna, Katy Perry and Lady Gaga.

“At one point she asked Ashley, ‘How in the hell do you do this?’ to which Ashley replied, ‘What? Like it’s hard?’,” our spy said.

Needless to say, Longshore’s wit had Witherspoon chuckling.

Alabama Shakes singer Brittany Howard was also caught under Longshore’s artsy spell. We’re told the duo bonded over their Alabama roots. Howard is from Athens, and her eyes lit up when Longshore revealed she was from Montgomery. She also said that she listens to Howard’s music when she’s painting.

Meanwhile, Scout Willis attended, and we’re hear she was overheard telling local singer-songwriter Cody Belew that she was in town for writing sessions.

Longshore may have even made some sales.

Morgane Stapleton and Karen Fairchild were overheard mulling over which paintings they wanted to purchase.

“There is nothing more powerful than a circle of women. Have those women singing a song and you’ll go right to heaven. And that is Nashville,” Longshore said.
