Sam is an illustrator from Baltimore, MD.
His work combines dense, line-obsessed drawing with a printmaking sensibility of layering color and texture to
create energetic, vibrant, and narrative-oriented images that often explore the effects and
implications of modern technology, media culture, and consumerism on human behavior.
Sam pulls inspiration from DIY music, silkscreened posters, zine culture and independent
comics, horror movies, and the interactive storytelling of video games and tabletop RPGs.
