Sam's area of interest includes, still life arrangements, flowers, birds and insects. The still life imagery is not created from an existing arrangement but from multiple references of objects. The compositions created by sketching out placement shapes and then working on the desired combination of textures, colours and objects. Sam enjoys playing with symbolism and often uses elements that have multiple meanings to her and the viewer. " The idea of a still life, freezing a moment in light and shadow has always interested me. Creating these works allows my very busy and cloudy mind to rest. For this I am so truly grateful"
