Dinner with the Artist-Hosted by ARTichokes and Room 39

Alright! I am going to let you all on something pretty darn cool! On May 26th, Room 39 and Artichokes in Mission Farms are hosting a Dinner with the Artist event honoring me as the Featured Artist of the month. What this mean is that you get to relax, have dinner and participate in an open conversation about my creative process and how my career as a fine artist started. It is a story of how Fine Art found me as I was searching for myself as a painter while pursuing a career as an Illustrator. It has been a life long passion of mine as someone who enjoyed drawing since age 5 and will be a life long effort to find my way to making a difference in the world with my gift in life. 

A signature drink will be created specially for that evening and will be included in your three course meal. 

If you would like to learn more, please visit ARTichokes to reserve or call (913) 322-9481

DINNER WITH THE ARTIST
May 26th, 7:00 pm - 9:30 pm
Dinner & Art!  Our featured artist for May will be Allan Chow.  Don't miss this event!

About this Piece

Modern landscape Artist Allan Chow's new subject matter further showcases his talent with a palette knife, applying thick impasto in brilliant colors found only in dreams. His latest paintings represent a process of discovery and understanding of change -- search for deeper awareness between the self, creative process and it's relevance in the world.

Private Collectors range from Kansas City, to Seattle, to Santa Barbara and Hong Kong. Allan has received awards from the Society of Illustrators of Los Angeles, New York and Korea, and has been featured in the Kansas City Star on four separate occasions.

Blue Grass Valley - Original Painting - By Allan Chow 2011

This is definitely one of my favorite paintings that I have completed. If you spend enough time in the Flint Hills. Those are the signature colors of the land during a clear day when the grass is still green from the rain. Other than sunset, that is my second favorite time of the day. I am still not sure what to call this painting yet but for now lets go with "Blue Grass Valley." A classic mid-western title.

Enjoy!
