Born in 1989 and raised in several parts of Canada, Sam drew and painted intensely from a young age. 

Winning awards and receiving recognition throughout high school, she then went on to get her Bachelor's of Fine Art Degree from the University of Lethbridge. 

After school, life threw a curve ball and introduced her to the complex and growing world of Tattooing.

Becoming a Tattoo Artist opened up a whole new art medium she explored, while travelling the world and winning awards for her tattoos and paintings. She has completed thousands of tattoos in a variety of styles over the years, a collection of some of her favorite tattoos can be found in this gallery.

While tattooing, she continued to work on painting and produced hundreds of paintings of all sizes and types, entering shows, hanging exhibits, and doing private commissions.

Around 2017 at the birth of her first child, her time was diverted towards motherhood, and tattooing slowly faded out of the picture and her artistic focus went back towards painting.

One year later, her second child was born, and she is now fully concentrating on painting when she isn't sharing the wonders of the world with her two kids. 

​

Sam's main painting focus is an assortment of food and delicious things, capturing that feeling you have when you're craving that certain something, or creating pictures that immediately cause your mouth to water. 

Common subjects she also paints include colorful realism of glowing objects, a huge collection of skull paintings, portraits expressing an intense feeling or mood, pet and animal portrait commissions, and the occasional landscape. Sam's paintings can be found in private collections around the globe.
