Today we’d like to introduce you to Samone.
Hi Samone, we’re thrilled to have a chance to learn your story today. So, before we get into specifics, maybe you can briefly walk us through how you got to where you are today?
Being an artist by heart and developing new skills each time I create, has shown me that the passion for art will always stay will me and continue to grow.
Going on adventures and meeting local artist and learning new techniques on how to do a simple brush stroke to blending colors on a large scale, has expanded my mind and taught me that I can truly go far with my artwork.
I have a deep passion on creating things and love seeing my pieces of art all around the world.
As any human, I do struggle on finding the little niche I love to draw, but it always comes down to clean line work and helping people with their art or murals or creating something together and making something beautiful.
Ive grown to see that murals are something I desire to do and have many commissions. However I paint, I love to see and hear that people love a piece of my artwork and bring one of my pieces home.
Seeing the joy in peoples faces when I have helped them finish a mural is a blessing. As I know murals can be difficult at times and I always feel honored when they ask me for help.
When I paint even if it’s to help someone finish a project, or paint a canvas, or even finish one of my own murals.
It truly put my heart at ease, cause painting is something I love to do no matter the outcome!
Alright, so let’s dig a little deeper into the story – has it been an easy path overall and if not, what were the challenges you’ve had to overcome?
As any human, there are obstacles and struggles along the way.
What I tell my son and myself is to “TRY AND TRY AGAIN”.
This has helped me proceed in everyday life. Of course there are struggles; it’s how you get out of them that counts.
I have a great family and great mentors in my life that know how to help lift me when I need a little push, cause that is what I do with them. The best people in life and to help move forward happily is understanding that we all struggle but at the end of the day we are happy.
I m grateful to feel drained or tired or the reasons Im sore, because feeling that, means I have accomplished either finishing a painting, having my son learn something new, or taking a hike to get some fresh air.
As long as I am myself, I’ve learned to understand that I can get myself out of any struggles.
Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
I specialize in Murals.
As I have a mentor that has pushed me out of drawing on a piece of paper to expand my creativity into something bigger.
I have progressed in painting murals and canvases.
My specialty in art is my line work and bold colors that you can see from a distance. I used to do shading and draw faces for a very long time and now I have moved on to ocean theme, retro styles, and pin stripping.
The thing I am most proud of is everyday I get asked on what I am creating to day and they would love to see the progress I have done. Even more so, the murals I have created around town will be there for a long time, where my son can see them when he gets older. Im proud that he can see what I have created with my hands and show him he can do anything he wants as long as you put your mind to it.
What sets me apart is my ability to create something unique. I don’t just want to recreate an idea; I want to give it personality and make it stand out. Every piece I create has a little bit of me in it.
Im old school and I sketch my up coming murals on a piece of paper. I gone through so many papers and pencils to find something suiting.
Can you talk to us about how you think about risk?
I am willing to take risks because I know staying comfortable doesn’t always lead to growth. Ive learned to trust my creativity, take chances on opportunities, and challenge myself with projects that push me beyond what I already know. I rather take the risk and see what I’m capable of than wonder what could have bee.
