Sam's love of colour, use of geometry and fine draftsmanship merge with a highly original vision to create an art that is alive and exciting. Although executed in the centuries-old classical oil technique, the paintings are modern in their conception and thought.

Sam was born in 1951 on the island of Fyn, Denmark. He was educated at the University of Western Ontario, (London) and studied Fine Art at the Ontario College of Art (Toronto). Sam developed a truly unique style early in his professional career.

Since 1992, Sam has been displaying his paintings to art-lovers from around the world at the corner of Abbott and Water Street in Vancouver's Heritage District of 'Gastown'.

For the first three months of 2019; Sam taught art to indigenous Mayan children in Guatemala volunteering through 'Project Somos', a Vancouver-based charity that provides education and so much more to children in need. Thanks to all of our generous donors who put this expression of pure joy on this child's face.

As each place holds its own 'special energy' Sam starts each original on location as a highly-detailed charcoal drawing.
