Adam tells me he lives off-grid, thus the mortgage statement rather than a utility bill.

Bio: Originally from Kentucky and studies at the University of Kentucky with a BFA. For the past 20 years I've been focusing on a medically oriented profession but after moving to Santa Fe I've committed to revitalizing my passion for art. My art focuses on story telling through landscape painting. I see my paintings as an emotional reaction to a place or landscape that celebrates color. I want to transition myself to a full time art career and see SFSA as the launching pad. My success at the Artisan Market makes me feel confident that the art market is excited and open to my work.
Skills and Experience: My experience with both art and my corporate career brings: large scale multi-unit operations (300+ locations), auditing both state compliance and financial budgeting, legislative advocacy and lobbying, and data based strategy planning.
