The works I create are usually an experiment of techniques used to create texture and visual blending through use of transparent colors. My recent work has been both abstract and representational in an energetic and at times chaotic expressionist/impressionistic movement.
Hello Ayo,
You do not know me but we have a number of cross-connections. First and foremost, your mom and dad came to dinner at my home in the FQ and in Paris, once upon a time. My ex-husband commissioned a sculpture from your dad that still sits in the courtyard of 837 Royal. A gorgeous structure, of course.
But I can tell you all these stories when I meet you.
I wrote Leah Chase’s biography, and Leah and I worked together on a new book about her life, for young readers, that was released last August. My good friend Jillian Gibson helped install your stunning mural at Leah’s Kitchen. Aimee Fitzpatrick and I both work at GSS.
Months ago I started a tradition of “my table” at Dooky Chase on Friday nights at 6:30. (Aimee came with a group from GSS this past Friday.) I want to organize a table of artists and hope you would come. I’m thinking of April 9, and I am planning to invite Jillian, Clifton Webb, and Chase Kamata. Could you join?
I am very eager to meet you! And please give my regards to your mom. We were in touch by mail years ago, and I hope she’s coping well with this pandemic.
Carol Allen
