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, Susan 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 records Costa Rica’s natural beauty, including its beaches, animals, and tropical life.
Blending impressionism and realism, Adams creates powerful paintings predominantly using oil on canvas. Her technique is distinctive; she starts with a stucco trowel to apply the gesso, occasionally layering metallic paint before introducing oil paint.
In “Summer Curl”, an abstract wave painting, Adams adopts an abstract, impressionistic style. While sharing a similar color palette with Emerald Curl, this work adopts brighter colors and distills the wave into a more simplified form, emphasizing the motion and essence of the sea rather than a detailed depiction. The result is a painting that leans toward abstraction, offering a meditative interpretation of the coastal landscape. This abstract wave painting offers a distinct interpretations of the ocean’s movement and energy
