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 captures the essence of Costa Rica’s natural beauty, including its beaches, animals, and tropical life.
In her striking wave crashing oil painting, Adams captures the raw power and energy of the ocean in motion. The painting showcases a rich palette of turquoise blues and rich greens to depict the water’s tumultuous movement. The curve of the wave as it crests is accentuated by foaming spray painted in crisp, white tones. In the background, a glimpse of the coastline adds context to the scene, hinting at the vastness of the ocean.
Adams’ use of colour intensifies the dynamic nature of the wave, evoking a sense of awe at the sheer force of the water. In this wave crashing oil painting, she invites observers into the heart of the ocean, where the relentless power of nature unfolds in a mesmerising display of energy and movement.
