“The towering eucalyptus groves of Hosp Grove Park in Carlsbad have long drawn me to this serene setting. At sunrise, the first light silhouettes their graceful forms before gently illuminating the still waters of Buena Vista Lagoon below.
In this fleeting moment, the lingering shadows of night yield to the quiet radiance of morning—an atmosphere imbued with a sense of renewal, energy, and quiet promise.”
—Peter Adams

Peter Adam’s “Sunrise Over Buena Vista Lagoon” is one of many evocative artworks featured in our group exhibition, Mastering the Mood: Atmospheric Emotion.

“Summer Sunset; Loleta”
Oil on canvas, 18” x 24”

“This was painted from the deck of my studio, Loleta, Ca., with this beautiful view to the west. Some inland fires were affecting the sky and light, creating a very atmospheric effect along the coast of Northern California.”
