"The finish requires perfection, but it’s the imperfections that spark the imagination"

 

Drew Allan (b. 1967) grew up in Fernandina Beach, Florida a town rooted deep in history, pirate lore, seafood and beautiful beaches.  Music was his first artistic outlet.  That passion would take him down the road to Orlando where he spent a few years chasing the rock star dream then eventually enrolling into Rollins College to pursue a career as an Environmental Scientist.  During that time, he also developed a love for painting and designing.  It would be many years later before he would have the opportunity to pursue that creative urge again.

​

After moving to Sarasota, Florida he continued experimenting with the arts.  As a self-taught, mixed media artist Drew found that he enjoys working with acrylic paints mixing texture and liquid mediums.  Drew’s use and experimentation of colors and abstract style is what draws you in allowing for the emotional experience.  He utilizes various tools, textures and other random odds and ends that bring life to his images.   

​

All of his paintings are original works and his artwork represents his life style.
