The Artworks of Chris Allen...
The following sketches are all from photographs
taken 40 years ago to the present day;
At school I was best at pencil-drawing but attempted
painting in oils at home – this I continued during the years spent in London as
a student, though never to my satisfaction!
During the last few years I have tried my hand with pastels and have finally
got back to working in acrylics and, occasionally, oils.
