Susan Adams draws inspiration from Costa Rica’s landscape and its people, specifically within the Guanacaste province, which has been her home for over 25 years.
As an observer of daily life and culture, Adams immortalises a diverse array of subjects, from cowboys and dancers to bull rings and traditional customs upheld by the eclectic spectrum of local people. Additionally, she captures the essence of Costa Rica’s natural beauty, including its beaches, animals, and tropical life.
In this El Dia de Padre Guanacaste painting, (the title meaning ‘Father’s Day’ in English), Adams offers an intimate portrayal of a Guanacaste cowboy riding his grey horse through a sun-kissed field. Beneath the shade of a towering Guanacaste tree, symbolic of the region’s identity, the scene unfolds with a sense of familial connection and tradition. As the soft green hues of the trees evoke the warmth of a Costa Rican day, the cowboy’s presence embodies the enduring spirit of paternal strength and guidance.
Adams presents a moment of quiet reverence and gratitude, inviting viewers to reflect on the bond between father and land in this El Dia de Padre Guanacaste painting.
