Texas born and educated, Roger earned his degree in Art Education at Texas Tech in 1966. He began his career as a high fire stoneware potter and art teacher in the 60′s and 70′s. He taught art in the San Angelo public schools while establishing the Art Center. Since 1977, the Art Center and his own work have received his full attention. Roger’s focus changed to bronze casting and sculpture during the 80′s but returned to clay in the 90′s, and the StarKeeper story was born. Roger is knowledgeable in many areas of art techniques and spends much time sharing with others. He remains committed to education by offering a diverse program of special interests for the children – creators of the future – and an array of programs for all ages. But, the Old Chicken Farm Art Center may well be Roger Allen’s biggest and finest work of art.
Sharing the Stars
Having worked with clay since 1960, I have passed through many stages of pottery making. Stoneware was my thing for many years, then I discovered COLOR and I’m having a good time. We create most of our colors and use an airbrush to apply the blended colors. I have several series that we work with and the pictures below show a small amount of the work.
