Life's a Beach (dig it)
Original oil painting, 24x30”
Life's a Beach was created as part of the Under Loves Sun series for a solo show in 2025. The imagery depicts a variety of figures at the beach; sharing the same sun, sand, water, and sky. The figures were intentionally chosen to have outward differences (build, complexion, etc.), yet were all painted from the same palette.
Adam was interested in creating a narrative for the shared body of work; something he hadn't explored yet in previous series, which relied more on shared aesthetics to tie things together. Who were these people and where was this beach they all found themselves on? Where did they come from as individuals and where were they going as a Whole?
The piece is painted with high-quality, artist grade oil paints on a triple gessoed canvas panel.
