Unique art on show
March exhibition: Welshpool artist Rod Adams with his artworks Suddenly I was a dad and The gentle art of fertilization.
ROD Adams, or ‘R’ as he signs his work, has been producing art work for many years now, but was reluctant to release it to the public.
Having finally done so, however, his exhibition Follow me as I walk is on display at Mushroom Gallery in Leongatha for the month of March.
Having never studied formally in art, the Welshpool artist has a unique rawness to his work.
Rod’s art comes from a world that exists somewhere between reality and fantasy where emotions, thoughts and observations come together.
When painting, he uses only the three base colours: red, blue and yellow.
From these he creates his colours.
He draws from what he’s seen around him to create his surreal landscapes to his real life pencil work.
His work has been described as distinctive, confronting and engaging.
Rod’s work was published in The Artists Palette magazine (82nd edition) as one of the top three up-and-coming artists in Australia.
He was also published in the Contemporary Artist Catalogue Volume 5 by invitation, and has been invited to display overseas on several occasions.
Rod has now branched out into freelance writing and photography with pieces already been published in outdoor magazines.
He has also had several successful solo and joint exhibitions throughout his career.
