Adlam’s current body of work centres around summertime; scorching our toes on the hot city pavement before our trip up north to Muskoka, finding relief by jumping into the chilly lake at our family cottage.  The vibrant swatches of colour remind us of those hot summer days lounging on the dock; skin glistening with sweat, sun-bleached hair and fantastically colourful bathing suits.  Wakeboarding with friends and lounging around on the water is all a part of cottage life.  The works evoke a light-hearted feeling of summer romance and fun with good friends and family.

“My intensions are to continue with my body of figurative work.  My passions lay with painting the world happening around me; People who are important to me – and relationships in my life whether good or bad.”  E. Adlam
