AmericaSpeaks: On August 11, 2007, Greg was commissioned by AmericaSpeaks to create a live painting during a statewide, web-cast town hall meeting on healthcare reform, sponsored by CaliforniaSpeaks. Greg was asked to capture the spirit of the conference which was attended by 3500 people at 8 locations across California. Each location featured one artist and television cameras beamed images to all eight locations. Governor Schwarzenegger delivered the opening address for the conference. Over a 7 hour period, Greg created a 3ft. by 4ft. acrylic painting titled simply “California Speaks” which captured his impressions as he absorbed the surroundings, the energy, the dialogue and the spirit of those who attended this historic event. This painting can be seen in Gallery 12 or click on the link below.
Due to the COVID pandemic, all of Gregory Adamson’s live performances and other in-person appearances have been postponed or cancelled until further notice. He does post regularly to Facebook and Instagram and also does live streaming painting demonstrations and classes, primarily on Facebook.
