gallery oils




We'll I can't believe the last time I posted was back in Feb. It seemed like a month at the most. I am in the beginning preproduction stage of another feature animated film and my life blurs past.
I thought I would post some of my gallery paintings from a show I had back in 05. I had a great time creating them as the theme was the 40's. I love that era for the fashion, design and strength. My dad was born in 1925 and through him I would hear of life around WWII. I thought I would take one of my favorite subjects, Trains, and create scenes as I would have imagined them. All of these were researched but ultimately I imagined them as opposed to copying any specific location. When I paint I try to capture an emotion or a memory from my past. I hope you enjoy them. More to come very soon.

Richard Gaines said...

Sam, your stuff is GODLY!!! Every work was a breath of inspiration. There's something oneiric about your work, most likely due to the impressionistic feeling, like some ephemeral vision in a dream.

I really love this, man!

Enzie Shahmiri said...

Very nice work! I love the atmosphere you have created in the pictures.

Lushen said...

FinnFactory said...

Ok, so I looked at these and just loved them - want one for my wall and was about to write a comment like "Wow, cool, amazing, great job, dude - you good" but saw that some 30 odd number of folks already did, so I thought I'd fill the space up with good intentions

GOOD INTENTIONS
