Here is a closer look at this triptych painting individually. For this project, I had to paint all three canvases simultaneously to make sure that they line up on the wall. After investing in three easels and some c-clamps, it did the trick.

Fiery filled sky, by Allan Chow 2012

Inspired by a previous painting, I find it productive to start a painting right after finishing one bc it helps to keep the momentum going b4 it is gone.

Dream Catcher by Allan Chow 2012

Started a new painting yesterday. Started out with a neutral sky and everything else just fell into place.

Global Prairie installation complete

Recently, Allan Chow finished a large triptych of the Prairie for one of his clients, Global Prairie, a successful marketing and communications company. Their company's name says it all. Allan's abstraction of the sky and prairie fits their contemporary interior perfectly. Below are some images of the process and finished product. It all started with some concepts. Bringing visual concepts really help the client envision what they are getting.

Here is the final paintings installed. They absolutely love it and it really help bring positive energy and color into their amazing space.

New York City, 2012

In front before me was Monet's triptych at the MOMA. Left me breathless!



Composition and the symphony of colors was mesmerizing.

Traveling is healthy. It humbles and rejuvenates me creatively.
