Allen grew up in Fresno, California, but now resides in Austin, Texas. Fresno and Texas -- particularly Lubbock where his father is from -- have strong influences on Allen's art. He has been inspired by tumbleweeds, and tire treads. Empire consists of bronzed objects most of which evoke the feel of Americana: stars, stripes, lone ranger's mask. Other objects are a reflection of Allen's environment: tire treads, and taxidermy rattlesnakes. Allen has an impressive artistic pedigree and works in many different media: painting, drawing, wood work, bronze, ceramics, photography, film, writing, acting, drums, and singing. His parents are visual artist and songwriter Terry Allen, and actress Jo Harvey Allen.
