A Collectors' view of Texas Artist M. Allison showing 'My Balloons and Me'


One of my collectors has written this email to me
and I love to know the thoughts they have about
my art!

Most of your art that I have seen (emails) always seems to show colors that are soothing not harsh. The subject matter seems to be people having quiet moments that are enjoyable (child with balloons).  Maybe I haven’t seen your “wild” side of painting. I also find it interesting that the subjects don’t have faces. It has the effect of being able to put your self into the painting or someone you know. I don’t know if that makes any sense but remember I am an accountant not an art critic.

I like his accountant 'art critic' sense!

Figurative Pencil Sketch turned Oil Painting by Texas Artist M. Allison


I Feel Left Out
16 X 20 thinned pencil and oil painting

Contact me for purchase 200.

Well...I decided to do this in thinned oils using the 
pencil as shadowing.  I can always go back and heavy
it up with thick oils.  Apologies for the 'snapshot'.  Blurry and
not a great photo and uncropped at that!

First Stage Figurative Pencil Sketch by Texas Artist M. Allison


This is the first time I have posted art in the stages
I work in.  I grabbed a canvas and began to sketch, which
I love to do.  Now...I can't decide what to do with this.
I can leave it alone or use thinned oils and let the pencil be an
integral part of the painting, or maybe do it in heavy oils.
Stay tuned.
