Welcome to the homepage of artist Erin Allen. Here, artwork as well as potential business opportunities are showcased, especially commissioned portraits.

I am primarily a portrait artist, with distinct leanings to the fantastical as well as a penchant for painting music makers. My muse is fueled by music and the worlds created by authors and the illustrators who have inspired me to become a painter. Without them, I could not create. My key ambition is to take the inspiration granted me, and to funnel it into my work and in turn give inspiration to another.

I strive to carve out a name for myself interpreting, enhancing and embodying my inspiration. In addition my love for animals has prompted me to expand my repetoire to include portraits of people's beloved pets.

I currently reside in the Greater Vancouver area in British Columbia, Canada
