Alan began his career at the University of Mobile, Alabama where he focused on his degree in Fine Art, and developed his love for Pop Culture. Furthermore, he received a minor in theater which added to his grasp of the human figure. Born in California, Alan tells the story of how he would sit on his balcony and see people creating lips on the beach. As a result, he took this insight and began painting large compositions with tiny figures. These figures are small stencils that Alan made to reflect people doing a variety of poses like walking, cheering, or jumping. Therefore, with these tiny figures, Alan creates portraits by layering these multiple silhouettes. Ultimately, this style developed into his Populus series, and has made him known world-wide through his Pop Culture compositions.
