Artist Comments
A bird with copper and blue feathers perches on a slender branch. Loose brown and green brushstrokes suggest surrounding leaves. Sally Adams' paintings are inspired by photographer, Paul Birtwhistle. The piece comes mounted on a cradled wood panel, waxed to protect against moisture, dirt, and UV light.
About the Artist
Artist Sally Adams paints ethereal scenes with intimate simplicity and clarity of expression. "I only paint the core components necessary to convey an emotional connection," says Sally. Since she was a young child, she has always had an innate affinity for being outdoors. Spending time with nature is where she finds peace, and it reminds her that beauty can be found anywhere. Sally finished a graphic arts degree and pursued a short career as a graphic artist and ceramic tile artist but soon realized it was painting she wanted to do. "Pickledog," her home studio in Michigan, is an ode to her beloved furry companion of 15 years. She keeps her space open and bright; if the sun is out, the space fills with the best light. Sally finds music essential, as is the time she spends outdoors before creating. Sally encourages her three daughters also to develop their creative passions. Often, she works at her daughter's studio, UGallery artist Drew Noel Marin, a skilled artist like her mother.
