ART TODAY 08.21.17: United in Healing: Adam Mars is a Catalyst for Re-examination and Reflection
I painted this work in July of 2006 as the presidential campaigns began to gain momentum. Needless to say, it’s more relevant today than I expected.

I really don’t think about how I want to affect people with my art work. I do it for very selfish reasons. I paint for my own well being, but I hear it has some good side effects on others.
There are doors we can’t open by ourselves. Sometimes it takes an alchemy of two people to experiences new levels of beauty, love and intimacy.
For me, this painting is about feeling our true essence in how we are all connected to the animal kingdom and nature. It is in that experience of oneness that healing happens for ourselves and the planet.
I am just moving into a new place with a studio in the backyard. I also have outside studio/gallery on Pico Blvd. They both have high ceilings. Feeling blessed with my spaces to create!
For years since living in Los Angles, I have had this longing to lay down on the earth and be covered by leaves. I think that yearning has eased up a bit by painting so many pictures of women who have leaves, trees and antlers on them.
