Stuart Adams

I have always loved art. At age five Peter Max was my favorite artist. Picasso was my hero at age nine and when I was eleven I discovered Paul Klee. My love of art has never diminished, and I continue to study, create, and show art voraciously. 

​

I am an artist first. Media and techniques are less important to me than the process. I carry a sketchbook almost constantly and fill several annually. My sketches and drawings inspire my painting and dreams. Which inspire more drawings and paintings. 

​

My artwork has won me many awards beginning with the Judges Choice award at the 1980 Art Open. I have entered artwork at the Lake Oswego Festival of the Arts since I was in a teenager, and have won many awards there. 

 

I do my best to be involved in the community. I am involved with the L.O. Reads program. I assisted the L.O. Art Council, with their sculpture unveiling this last summer, and I attended the Chamber of Commerce’s wine tasting tour as an artist this fall. I welcome any chance to become involved with local art and artists. I am excited with any chance to meet and discuss art. I have done some of the teaching, and aspire to do more. My mission is to bring color to the world, and my greatest joy is in inspiring others.
