Raging seas, dark landscapes and moody skies form the basis of Adair’s work: ‘My work focuses on storms and the light we find within them. My figures are painted in colour to create a stark contrast against the scene they are viewing, in order to portray them as the only colour in a black and white world, I paint intimate and real scenes that invite the viewer to look closer and embrace the chaos

Sophie Adair is a young British talent currently residing in France whose paintings have been featured in solo exhibitions nationally. Working primarily in oil paints, Adair creates impressionist style seascapes to explore the hidden beauty of water and its reflections. Her work is characterized by great technical detail in the rendering of waves and sea foam, prioritizing the delicate light on the ocean surface.
My work focuses on storms and the light we find within them. I paint intimate and real scenes that invite the viewer to look closer and embrace the darkness. The darkness is something that most shy away from but for me there is nothing more comforting than a storm creating chaos- after all there can be no darkness without light.
My work has evolved from painting the sea as a subject to painting it as a person; historically boats were named after women and it felt fitting for me to adopt the same practice. Each painting is personified and named after women, whether they’re a historical figure or simply a strong woman who altered my life in some way.
My paintings include stormy skies and rocky shore lines. I leave the edges unfinished in order to create the illusion of hazy memories. Within each I try to portray the subtle lighting, tones and mood of each seascape creating powerful emotions for the viewer.
