Adam Zins


Born in Madison, WI
Lives and works in Appleton, WI

Adam Zins is a multidisciplinary artist whose work spans painting, drawing, and creative art. With a background as a chef, Adam spent years using food as his creative medium before fully immersing himself in visual art. A lifelong angler and lover of the outdoors, he discovered a profound artistic connection when he began drawing and painting flies. The rhythmic patterns and subtle uniqueness of each fly—like snowflakes—offered a new kind of inspiration.

Adam’s work is driven by a deep appreciation for nature, texture, color, light and music. His subjects range from trout and flies to concerts, contemporary portraits, and landscapes, always viewed through a lens of curiosity and emotion. He explores lighting and perspective to present familiar subjects in unexpected ways. Each piece is a meditation on the things he loves and believes in—rooted in personal experience and shaped by a passion for detail.
