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 piece, Adams portrays a young voluptuous Guanacaste woman leaning against a stable door, her gaze thoughtful as she looks out of the canvas. The woman appears to be posing for somebody, leaving viewers curious about who might be behind the camera snapshotting this intimate moment.
Renowned for her skill in capturing the essence of her subjects, Adams expertly records the woman’s expression, hinting at a deeper narrative waiting to unfold. Through subtle nuances in the woman’s demeanour, viewers are drawn into the scene, encouraged to ponder the untold stories and unseen characters that inhabit this evocative setting
Set against the backdrop of a stable yard, Adams evokes a sense of tradition and rural life inherent to Guanacaste. This young voluptuous Guanacaste woman painting celebrates the rich culture and vibrant spirit of Guanacaste, inviting viewers to immerse themselves in the timeless beauty of the region.
