Hearts of Life Exhibit
Modern landscape Artist Allan Chow’s new subject matter further showcases his talent with a palette knife. Hearts of Life is a collection of his latest studies of still lives that enriches the mind and soul through bold, exuberant colors, texture and conversations.

This body of work represents a chapter of Allan’s evolving career. Change is never comfortable nor pleasant for it feels like your body is rejecting a foreign substance through pain. But it is one’s job to find a creative way to cope for the desire to succeed is worth dying for. Though the paintings are not in order, each of them represents his efforts finding a voice with a new subject matter through experimentation while his quest for a new chapter in his career continues. In the process, personal struggles, random thoughts, personal conversations and expressions flows through his bold paint gestures and compositions.
 Here is a sneak peek of some samples of my new work!!!!!
