Neal Adams biography
Neal Adams (London, 1968)
Neal Adams showed a talent for drawing from a very young age. After passing his examinations in Art he studied painting with Professor James Turner of the (Wimbledon School of Art, London). Mr. Adams continued to paint with traditional oils and successfully sold his works at exhibitions in Piccadilly (London), Forest Gallery (Guilford) also submitting works to The Mall Galleries (London). This led to a commendation from The Royal Institute of Oil Painters.
Mr. Adams moved to Bali in 2001 to experiment with mediums other than oil paint and to discover the special energy that has inspired so many European artists before him. Neal Adams has made his own discovery; fusing traditional painting with gold leaf and mixed media. The gold leaf is used by the Balinese for decorating their temples and Neal has invented a way to use the gold to represent the dramatic effect of light. When observing the work from side to side the painting will show light radiating from the surface, creating a unique viewpoint from every angle.
The works between 2006 and 2007 were shown in a solo exhibition in Jakarta Indonesia sponsored by Prestige magazine. This exhibition was a sell out and led to a painting being purchased and hung in the presidential home.
Also Neal’s paintings are regularly shown by Master Piece Auction House with a 100% success and are fetching higher and higher prices.
