 Once upon a time, I imagined sharing Fearless Abstract Painting with the entire world! I honestly believe that my inspiration was a divine gift, and it's just too damn cool (and important) to keep to myself. A huge "Thank You" to my talented colleague & friend, Rae Broyles for helping me spread the good news of Fearless Abstract Painting with the world. Catch her in her beautiful studio near Atlanta, Georgia on May 3 & 4, 2018
 Question: "Hey Sam, I’m interested in how to sign a painting, I usually sign my last name in sharpie in the bottom right corner. I’m not in love with my signature. I’ve tried many variations. I m curious how you sign a triptych.... do you sign them all or just one? Thoughts about signing the side canvas?"  I am extremely honored to have been chosen to contribute one of my paintings to support the DMAC's (Donkey Mill Art Center) 11th Annual Art Auction at BMW Hawaii in Kailua-Kona. The auction provides a rare opportunity for art enthusiasts and patrons to access a wide range of works by renowned artists while enjoying a celebratory evening in a beautiful venue. As a token of light, hope & renewal, each artist was given a kukui nut lei to wear during the event.
 Sometimes your dreams gather an unprecedented momentum. What can a girl do besides thank her lucky stars and go with the flow?! After 21 days of travelling and teaching abroad, I arrived in Hawaii and taught 2 days of Fearless Abstract Painting for adults & keikis (kids) at the exclusive Kukio Golf & Beach Club in Kailua-Kona, Hawaii. I am honored. Truly, this is what painting in paradise looks like.
 At the beginning of February, I taught a Sold Out workshop at the Sonoma Community Center. The workshop was a huge success, so I was asked to come back and teach a second workshop. I was more than happy to do so. I found Sonoma extremely welcoming, full of smiles, friendship, gratitude, stunning vistas, delicious foods and an abundance of locally grown wines to enjoy.
