Allison Gregory, a self-taught artist, was born in San Antonio, Texas, and picked up her first paintbrush at the age of 5. Her passion and interest in art proved to be integral in her creative process. This drive and inspiration led her to California for the next 8 years, where she earned two degrees, graduating with honors in Studio Art and Design.

Two months after returning to Texas, Allison had her first exhibition. The success of the show, and the press generated from the event, paved the way for future opportunities. With the new galleries that were representing her, she was introduced to collectors from all over the globe, and had a steady stream of commissions. Her first international show was held in Holland at the age of 25.

Through the last decade, Allison has participated in 58 exhibitions to date (Including major art fairs), while working with prestigious galleries from all over the world.

She has been interviewed on television numerous times, and has had her work reviewed in magazines, newspapers, and books. Presently, she is represented in New York and Texas, along with a New England firm that acquires art for networks like NBC and CBS.

Most recent commissions in the public art genre include Gibson Guitartown and the world renowned CowParade. She was recognized as the first artist in CowParade history, to have been chosen to paint 4 cows in one city.

 In the last 3 years, Allison has also taken on new ventures and side projects .She works with the ubiquitous, European company Ritzenhoff, who have reproduced her art on high-end glassware. In addition, she partnered with Bodino, another European company, that uses her paintings as artistic covers for the Apple iPad skins, mouse pads, and an upcoming product called the M-2 mouse.

Just this month, Allison signed a contract with the US company, DecalGirl, who specializes in the production of custom art for every IT accessory you can think of... Cell phones, Kindles, Laptops, iPads...

“Persistence is key”, the motto Allison adheres to most, has proven to be integral in her success, and her work has evolved and matured into sophisticated “eye candy”. She lives and works in Austin, Texas.
