She never set out to build a career in art; she simply loves to sketch and paint. Most days she can be found sketching at home, and she is just as likely to be working on her next character at a local restaurant or at church. Her models are the people around her: old friends, new acquaintances and her own life experiences.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch2 style=\"font-size: 1.15em; line-height: 1.15; font-weight: bold; margin: 1.15em 0 1em;\"\u003eJoyful, Humorous Church Art\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eAllen's quirky, cartoon inspired style draws on the lively movement and celebratory spirit of the African American church. Her women rejoice, testify and praise without holding anything back, and the humor in each piece is always affectionate. Many of her calendars pair the art with a monthly Bible verse, making them a light hearted reminder to count your blessings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch2 style=\"font-size: 1.15em; line-height: 1.15; font-weight: bold; margin: 1.15em 0 1em;\"\u003eCalendars, Figurines, Magnets and More\u003c\/h2\u003e\n  \u003cp\u003eIn this gallery you will find Too Blessed to be Stressed wall calendars and two year pocket planners, collectible resin figurines such as One More Day Lord and A Mother's Prayer, refrigerator magnets, magnetic notepads and ceramic mugs.
