Pop Allen Paintings.


Pop Allen, my Great Grandfather was a California landscape painter.
His work is in every home in my family as he was perpetually prolific.
Here are a few works that hang in my Mom's beach cottage.




I never had the pleasure of meeting him in person.
But his work reminds me that there is so much one can leave behind,
that lasts generations.  There is Art, Music, Saying and Quotes.
So many in my family die too young...
But so wonderful that we get to know them even if we never meet.

H. Judson Allen, I would have liked to watched you with a paintbrush in your hand.
