Why we love this piece

Light and shade play against each other to set this artistic painting off. Featuring Stephens’ trademark bendy buildings and lamposts, the eye is drawn into the painting and down the market stalls. Framed in a ‘floating’ black frame this artwork is ready to hang.

Allan Stephens

About the artist

Allan Stephens was born in Maldon, Essex in 1970. Allan’s personal and professional history is a tale of two countries. He wanted to be an artist from a very young age, but the traditional routes of an artistic education were not to his liking. Despite being enrolled in art school, he decided...

Four years and as many continents later, he arrived in France where he met his wife. Adapting the French proverb “It’s through painting that you become a painter”, he decided to settle there and learn his trade. Hugely influenced by the French “plein air” tradition, he has been painting there ever since.

Allan worked as a portraitist at first, then a period of time in Provence, finally settling in Normandy. Totally self-taught, he opened his own gallery in Normandy in 2003, and has since sold his paintings across France, Germany and Belgium.

Now of French nationality, Allan enjoys coming back to his English roots. His direct, fresh style of painting life as he sees it, shows influences of both of them.

In November 2017, Allan Stephens released a book titled “Le Tour de Normandie en 80 Toiles”. This is a year-long project of uniquely on-site paintings covering various parts of Normandy.
