About Adam Trest:

A Colorist based in Laurel, Mississippi, Adam Trest captures the essence of Southern culture through his pattern driven fine art paintings. A New York Times bestselling illustrator, Trest’s work can be found in the illustrations of children’s books, hanging in the homes of his collectors worldwide, and in multiple home decor lines available nationwide. Regardless of the application, Trest’s work focuses on telling the story of life in the South.

About Azul:

A Story Told in Blue invites you into the world of artist Adam Trest, where nearly 50 pieces of his artwork come to life, all in shades of blue. The book takes you on a journey from the inspiration sparked by an unforgettable trip to Portugal, through the sketches, and finally to the stunning finished pieces. Alongside the artwork, Adam shares personal stories about his relationship with his dad and growing up in Mississippi, adding a heartfelt layer to the experience. It’s a mix of art, memories, and the color blue that tells a deeply personal story.
