Covenant boasts the first collection of Allen's personal drawings
and paintings. Each of his fantastical characters is accompanied by
a line of text, a poem or a brief story that captures their
essence. These visual narratives are pulled to the surface through
Allen's renowned mastery of storytelling and his use of graphite,
pencil and oils. The result is a fascinating journey into the mind
of this intriguing artist. Allen's strength comes from his mystical
connection to his work. He views himself as a guardian and creates
artistic personas that serve the well-being of others. At first
sight, his mythological characters may look odd, monstrous or
grotesque. Yet they represent the good that can be found when you
look below the surface of an individual. Allen has always liked the
underside of things. He embraces the bits of mortality that poke
out from under the skin. The artwork collected here addresses
Allen's need to face the challenges that surround him while
projecting himself into the art. He is driven by creating images
based on the strength of an individual's actions, regardless of how
they may be perceived for not conforming to society's semblance of
beauty.
