| Biography
Born in the UK, Allan's area of interest and work is the psychodynamic principles involved in the process of Art and Education. He continues to work in this area and commutes between Swansea, South Wales and Twickenham, London on a regular basis and paints his striking images within earshot of Twickenham Rugby Stadium. His images are strong and bold expressionist works, mirroring the emotional energy and adrenaline central to the physical game. The objective is to reflect the artist's state of mind rather than the reality of the external world, "My aim is to raise the subjective feelings above the objective observations." Allan's work draws an inevitable comparison to the highly regarded and extremely fashionable German Expressionists of the early Twentieth Century. Also known for his life works, which are painted or drawn with an almost disconcerting bold assurance, Allan's figures have a direct and powerful sensuality. Using these foundations he strives for his own and unique form of expression. Allan's work has an international appeal and is collected in the USA and Europe.
