Allison's choice of children's portraits as subject matter has been inspired by the many beautiful children with whom she has worked, past and present, and by her four incredible nieces: Ariella, Maya, Alexa and Lindsey. She is continually impressed by the ability of children to find joy in the simplest things, by their resiliency, and most of all, by the purity and generosity of their hearts. It is this combination of innocence, joy, strength and vulnerability that she wishes to convey in her portraits.

Allison's mixed media and abstract work explore relationships between people as well as relationships in nature. Her landscape paintings celebrate her reverence for and love of nature while enabling her to revisit treasured places through their creation. Whether she is painting portraits, figures or landscapes, her intention is to capture the true essence of her subject and to convey their unique spirit through color, light and form.
