Get to know me

Hey there! It's so nice to meet you! I'm Sam and I'm an artist living in Southern California. Here you'll find a little bit of everything that brings joy.

July 17 and 18

I have been stalled wondering how much to share and how much to not share – and ultimately not coming to a decision. I want to share my life experiences, but I don’t want to hurt other people. Anyway, I spent July 17 hunkered down at my computer editing. I was coming up on a […]
