I emailed Adam to let him know that I had blogged him. This was his response:
“Thanks Steve!
It’s always nice to hear from people who really connect with my work. Thanks for sharing it on your blog.
I see you are going to Burning Man.
I have had many good times there.
Have fun!
Adam”
Why am I not surprised that he’s a burner?
Scroll down a few posts to see his art and a link to his website.
In 2005 I was stumbling around the internet when I happened upon this:
What an interesting photograph… I searched around and found more.
Stunning! How did he manage to get these mice posed let alone to hold still as he photographed them?
It was with this photo that I realized these were not photos. They were paintings! It was the reflection of the matches that revealed this marvelous fact to me. I decided it was time to track him down. I found his website and fell in love all over again.
His paintings are so incredibly detailed, so realistic, so vibrant. They grabbed my by the imagination and shook my perspective. I get lost in the detail. He is a gifted man whose art touches my soul. His subjects are many and his talent is deep.
Here’s the featured work on his homepage as of this morning:
