Meet the Artist

Born on the Gulf Coast of Louisiana, Steve Adam grew up surrounded by salt air, palm trees, and ocean horizons that continue to inspire his work today. His journey eventually brought him west, where he fell in love with California’s culture, coastline, and art history.

After a successful 40-year career in construction, Steve now devotes his days to painting in his Laguna Beach studio and gallery. His art blends the raw beauty of the Gulf with the laid-back sophistication of the Golden Coast, creating bold, contemporary works that capture the coastal and desert lifestyle.

Collectors, designers, and hoteliers worldwide seek out Steve’s originals and commissions, while locals and visitors alike stop by the gallery to connect with the artist in person.

Whether for private homes, luxury resorts, or boutique spaces, Steve Adam’s work brings the spirit of the coast to life.
