ELRIGGS ALLEN
Elriggs Allen is a North Native American Artist creating over a hundred piece's of paintings a year that go out to collectors, galleries, order's and art shows. Coming into his 8th year as a full time artist Elriggs is now bringing his paintings to life through sculptures which reflect the nature and style with which he paint's and moves about. Elriggs was born in the canyon's of Arizona in year of 1977 on a cold February morning into the loving arm's of his parent's Carl and Rosey Allen, and by the age of one the young Navajo born child was already observing the the world around him and had created some of his first works of art which were mere scratch's in the sand but to the trained eye is was evident that Elriggs was interested in the world around him. By the age of five Elriggs had many scetch's and crayola paintings and would seclude himself for hours so he could draw in silence and look upon the world in a different manner than most kids his age. Instead of being scared of the spider he would began to draw the small stucture of the creature. This habit would stay true for years to come. And in those years that came young Elriggs the Artist grew into his own earning many awards in the elementry division. At the age of fifteen Elriggs had won numerous awards for art shows in the San Juan High school district in New mexico and Arizona. In Nevada he won and took the district art show and the northern nevada all state in his last years of high school. But No one would know not even Elriggs that these would be his last piece's of the 20th century. His father Carl died before his sixteenth birthday. It wouldn't be until a decade later when he would re-emerge as a truethful servent and surrender his ways and live the true life of an Artist.
