2025 Exhibitors - Drawing

I am a childrens book illustrator. I do a lot of studies of people and animals, and sometimes plants. I like to sketch direct from life in towns , zoos and farms. I also enjoy sculpture and printmaking, especially lithograph and etching.

AQrt is in the eye of the beholder....As much of my work is commissioned it desrves the best of interoretations of the clients ideas. A challenge and an interest. So many different ideas!!! Therefore it makes my own ideas unique. My inspiration comes from the Arts and Nature and Colour Compliments and Contrasts stimulating!

Whilst many of us have a curiosity to find out our origins on Earth, using telescopes and spaceships to search for answers, others pose the question ‘What is our impact on Earth?’. From climate change to war and social unrest, our planet has been burdened by Humans. Samuel uses his art to romanticize about foreign worlds far away. How similar or bizarre would they be? Would there be evidence of civilizations familiar to humans, and how would they have impacted their planets? In this continued series of works, Samuel documents what he imagines of the Universe’s undiscovered planets.

I am an illustrator, currently exploring painting in watercolour. I also love using pencil, pen and ink, printmaking and digital media to create books, accompany poems and depict tales of adventure!
