Adrienne Wannamaker

The discipline of producing art is a consistent, daily endeavor for Adrienne Wannamaker; however, the creative process itself remains fluid and ever-changing. Inspiration, imagination, and artistic vision do not follow a straight path—they ebb and flow over days or even weeks. This creative journey fills her with excitement, empowers her, and consistently results in imagery that is deeply rewarding and satisfying.

Inspiration
Adrienne’s inspiration stems from whatever delights her visually—what she describes as “what makes her eyes happy.”

Through her artistic journey and travels, she has found herself continuously drawn to the mesmerizing beauty of aerial views and landscapes. Nature, when observed from above, reveals itself in ways that never cease to captivate her. This fascination has become the driving force behind her work, as she seeks to translate the awe-inspiring essence of these perspectives into her distinctive artistic style.

1. The Allure of Aerial Views
Aerial perspectives offer a rare vantage point that allows viewers to perceive the world from above—almost as if given the gift of flight. These viewpoints reveal the intricate patterns and interconnections of the natural world, which Adrienne aims to express through her artwork. Her goal is to share the sense of liberation and wonder this perspective inspires, inviting others to experience the same thrill of flight and discovery.

2. The Majestic Beauty of Landscapes
Landscapes have long served as a source of artistic inspiration, and Adrienne is no exception. Whether capturing rolling hills, expansive deserts, or tranquil coastlines, her work seeks to evoke the profound emotions these environments can stir. By depicting both the grandeur and serenity of nature, she hopes to offer viewers a momentary escape from daily life, transporting them to peaceful, almost magical, settings.

3. Colors and Textures
A defining element of Adrienne’s work lies in her use of color and texture. She draws from the vibrant palettes found in aerial views and landscapes—from deep ocean blues to the verdant greens of forests and fields. Her approach often incorporates techniques such as layering, expressive brushstrokes, and mixed media to recreate the tactile qualities of the natural world, engaging viewers both visually and emotionally.

4. Emotions and Connections
Adrienne’s art is designed to foster a sense of connection with nature. Her aerial-inspired pieces aim to awaken personal memories and emotions within viewers, deepening their appreciation for the world around them. In doing so, she hopes to inspire a sense of responsibility for preserving the beauty of the Earth, encouraging a more thoughtful and protective relationship with the environment.

Through her work, Adrienne Wannamaker aspires to share the breathtaking beauty of aerial views and landscapes. She seeks to elevate the viewer’s perspective, offering a renewed appreciation for the natural world. Ultimately, her goal is to foster a sense of connection, respect, and stewardship for the planet’s landscapes—an invitation to cherish and protect these wonders for future generations.

Her Work
Since 1980, Adrienne has dedicated herself to the world of art, exploring paths in education, advertising, architectural finishes and products, and, as of 2015, fine art. Over the years, she has refined her craft and cultivated a distinct visual language.
