LAS VEGAS - The "British BodyTour" pictorial exhibition went on display for the first time
in September 2008. Within the four months of initial display nearly 10,000 art afficionados viewed
the gallery collection featuring nude figure model Jenny Devine from Birmingham, England.
"That's such great news about my pics," smiled Brummie model Jenny Devine.
"I'm quite happy."
The "British BodyTour" pictorial features eleven intimate sepiatone images. Each picture
was created in a Las Vegas studio setting using professional digital cameras and a combination of
direct and reflected natural light.
"It was absolutely fabulous working with Jenny in the creation of this pictorial," Allio
said. "She was great as an artistic partner during the creative collaboration. Based on
this and previous experience, it seems that European models seem to have a greater cognoscence
of historic art and the creative process, especially when it comes to artistic nudity and the
beautiful nude human figure. They treat art as a refined and treasured gift rather than a
common commodity."
Allio was born in the Commonwealth of Virginia, USA. He is a graduate of the University
of Virginia with a Bachelor of Arts degree in English Communications and Visual Arts. His fine
artworks of nude subjects have been exhibited worldwide.
