About
A Utah native, Adam was born fourth--the only boy–out of six kids. In high school, he was asked to create a section of a mural in the school cafeteria to represent his class. He politely declined, as it would have interfered with important matters like pizza and hockey practice.
After two years of studying exercise sciences at the University of Utah, he visited France and fell in love with the masterpieces of the Louvre--deciding on the spot that he would change his major to painting. He considers himself fortunate to have studied with John Erickson and John O’Connell, and cites them both as influences on his work. After graduating with a BFA in 2005, he further advanced his education studying with renowned figurative painter, Jeff Hein.
He now lives in Salt Lake City and is Director of Meyer Gallery, Park City.
