Sam lives and works on the South Coast of Cornwall UK with her husband and rescue cat Nala. From a very young age Sam had a passion for art, and followed that passion through to college and the completion of her HND, where she studied many art disciplines including ceramics, coppersmithing, printmaking and jewellery making. In more recent years Sam has returned to her artistic roots, and works predominantly in pencils and paints, focusing her studies on wildlife and animals. With a strong conviction for raising awareness of animal conservation and helping prevent animal suffering Sam donates a few of her artworks each year to conservation projects and local animal charities and rescue centres.
