adamscolours

​

I am based in Weston-super-Mare and Bristol. I studied Fine Art at Art College in 2008 and quickly realised that painting and colour theory was my preference.

​

I have done many private commissions, for individuals and larger organisations, sold my own paintings in the UK and overseas.

​

I tend to focus on light contrasts, mark-making techniques, layering, and scraping away to create artwork. I’m drawn to expressive, gestural art and free-flowing colours. I typically paint from the imagination but it is sometimes based on something I have seen or feel in life.  My work is fluid and I paint quickly, let it dry, then add more.

 

My paintings sometimes change over and over, which makes for an exciting process and hopefully leads to a more dynamic outcome. I am all for bright colours, usually painting straight onto a canvas once I have a rough outline in my mind.

​

The scraping and replacing of paint, reveals hidden colours and marks below the surface, which adds texture and depth. 

 

My inspiration is drawn from other artists, places I have been, but mostly what I feel. I have a soft spot for surrealist art and photography. I always paint with music as I feel it encourages me to be expressive. I mainly use acrylic, oil pastel and spray paint.
