"When I recently saw Samara's work for
the first time, I made significant investment in her art because of
her uniqueness of her expression.
In fact, one of the pieces is in a
completely new subject area for my personal collection because of
her ability to capture a moment so exquisitely."

As both an apprentice of
Gertrude Keen and one of only a handful of serious students accepted
by Loren Adams, Samara has invested the time necessary to develop
fully her extensive talents.
Her landscapes convey the
serene beauty, the rugged intensity, and the bouquet of colors
paraded there on a daily basis. Through Samara's Visions,
you can immerse yourself in the grandeur of some of the most
magnificent scenery on our planet.

As the daily, natural lighting
changes in your room, so too does the lighting in Samara's art. At
night, you can create the same effect with controlled lighting
(track lighting, dimmer switches, and so on) to more accurately
reflect your mood.

Landscapes are an
intriguing subject matter to Samara because of the ever
changing lighting. As a result, there is a difficulty of
translating that lighting and its associated feeling to
canvas. Not only is it very important to her that her
translation be as accurate as possible, but Samara has given
each of her works a rare quality that allows you to follow
the natural lighting of a scene.

Known throughout Western Canada as "The Wolf Lady," Samara has long
been a supporter of the wolf, through Wolf Haven International and
other wolf-oriented organizations. Wolves are a lifelong mission to
Samara. As a teenager, a wolf saved her from a potentially life-
threatening situation.

She has
sketched and painted wolves ever since, long before the
current popularity of wolves began. As a result, Samara has
over 500 wolf originals, numerous additional original
hand-pulled serigraphs, as well as limited edition
lithographs. Her collection is the largest artistic study of
the wolf ever done and is an ongoing "work in
progress". |
|
|
Whether it is from her early life experience or not, Samara has a
special connection with the wolf that is clear in each rendering's
personality.
