Original artwork description:

100x150cm oil on stretched canvas.
Created at her first artist residency in Pouch cove Canada

Raging seas, dark landscapes and moody skies form the basis of Adair’s work: ‘My work focuses on storms and the light we find within them. My figures are painted in colour to create a stark contrast against the scene they are viewing, in order to portray them as the only colour in a black and white world, I paint intimate and real scenes that invite the viewer to look closer and embrace the chaos.’
