Recognized for both his passion of
drawing and his wonderful use of color, Adamson's current body of work is described as
observations of contemporary life. "Crawfurd Adamson's paintings are primarily
concerned with human figures and interaction between people. Adamson's vivid colors and
abstract patterns allow the viewer's gaze to flow over the canvas, taking in the emotional
strength of the content, color and composition."
