Adele Auchterlonie
creates paintings that feel like places you’ve been before - even if you haven’t. Inspired by long summer days, time near the ocean, and the small rituals of everyday life, each work captures the essence of a moment rather than the details of a scene. Adele’s paintings are not literal landscapes. They are emotional ones.
A World Built From Memory
Step into Adele’s world and it feels like arriving somewhere warm. The kind of day that unfolds slowly. Salt in the air. Sun on your shoulders. The sound of water nearby. Music drifting between conversations. Nothing here is rushed. Nothing important is happening - and that’s exactly the point.
These are the moments her work is built from. Long afternoons by the ocean.
Time spent outdoors. Shared meals, quiet pauses, laughter carried through warm air.
The kind of moments that feel fleeting while they’re happening, but stay with you long after
Commissions
A commission becomes more than painting a photograph. Instead, Adele creates a Memory Map - an abstract visual map of a moment that matters to you.
Clients begin by sharing a photograph, story, or collection of images from a meaningful experience - a summer holiday, a home by the coast, a place that holds emotional significance. From there, Adele translates the memory into symbols
Rather than recreating the scene, she rebuilds it - layering elements together until the feeling begins to emerge. The final painting becomes a cartography of experience. Not a map of a place, but a map of how that moment felt.
