Episode Synopsis
Ever wondered how animals inspire profound self-discovery. Adam Pankratz reveals his journey from zookeeper to painter. Discover how a near-death experience shaped Adam's art, the symbolism behind his animal paintings, and the creative process that fuels his unique style. Plus, understand the deeper meaning behind his "Red Earth Guardian" bear piece. Adam works primarily with acrylic paints, finding that their quick-drying nature allows him to express his ideas spontaneously, layer by layer. Whether depicting the fiery golden-headed lion tamarin or the majestic bear, his creations often symbolize themes of courage, vulnerability, and the boldness inherent in the natural world.
