Makes a Difference
Impact: Art with a Purpose
At the heart of my artistry lies a profound mission: to use my creative talents as a force for good, directly supporting veterans’ housing and well-being. Each purchase or donation made through our collection not only acquires a piece of unique artwork but also plays a crucial role in transforming the lives of veterans who have served our country.
Transforming Lives
One Artwork at a Time
Your acquisition of my art is more than an aesthetic choice—it’s a step towards enacting real change. With each sale, a substantial share of the proceeds is allocated to reputable organizations dedicated to providing essential housing, training, and support to our homeless veterans. This tangible impact of your support enables us to assist more veterans in regaining their stability and dignity, offering them the foundation to rebuild their lives.
To further this cause, I am an active supporter of Rescue Residence, a dedicated entity in the mission to provide homes for our heroes, which can be explored at www.rescueresidence.org.

About Allen
In the vibrant tapestry of my life, each color and stroke on my canvas represents a journey of discovery, resilience, and profound dedication. Beginning my professional odyssey as an artist in 1990, my world was filled with creativity and an undying passion for expression. However, the events of 2001, with the economic down following the tragic fall of the World Trade Towers, cast a shadow over my canvas of dreams. Despite the challenges, my spirit, much like the indomitable strokes on my canvas, remained resilient. Transitioning into the realms of real estate and finance, I nurtured my entrepreneurial spirit while the artist within lay dormant, yearning for reawakening.
The year 2018 marked a significant turning point, as I rekindled my connection to art, merging my passion with a newfound mission: to support the brave veterans who served and sacrificed. My return to the art world was not just a personal triumph but a commitment to a cause greater than myself. Through my work, which spans themes from wildlife and golf to horse racing, rodeo, and military art, I serve as a conduit for change, providing aesthetic pleasure and practical aid to those in need.
My artistic mission is underpinned by a dedication to supporting homeless veterans. Sales from my artwork, ranging from accessible prints to exclusive limited editions and original masterpieces, contribute to veteran housing initiatives. Each piece sold not only adorns a space but also anchors a veteran’s hope for a better life.
My artwork resonates deeply with successful business owners and golf enthusiasts, who appreciate the dual value of my work: its aesthetic appeal and the positive impact of their purchase on the lives of veterans. These patrons, who view acquiring a piece of my art as both a privilege and a contribution to a noble cause, are integral to my mission.
In my story, we find a powerful blend of passion, perseverance, and philanthropy. My journey reflects the belief that art is not just seen but felt, and its true value in its power to inspire change and nurture hope. Through my creativity and compassion, I paint a brighter future for those in need, leaving a legacy of art and altruism that transcends the boundaries of the canvas.
