Internationally recognized for her coloured pencil work, Allison presents her “Prism” series, based on the theme of family and using the pure colours of the rainbow. She uses black and white photographs as her inspiration, draws the images enlarged in graphite, then replaces each line and value with coloured pencil as she develops the composition. This series is the artist’s attempt at honouring the value of family in her life. Visitors on the studio tour can see lighthouses, photo-realistics florals, market vignettes all rendered in coloured pencil, as well as hand-made felt pastoral scenes. Check out the in-home classroom where Allison gives lessons in coloured pencil techniques. Sign up for an adult one day workshop at this must-see stop on the tour.
