Donald Ferris Allan, a painter who was born in Springville, Utah, spent his time creating art at residences in New York City and Mapleton, Utah. His still-life work is very detailed from an illusionistic point of view. Overall, this rather interesting oil painter and opaque-watercolor specialist has a distinctive manner, somewhat archaic in its look. Allan died July 10, 2013 in Payson, Utah.
