Samantha Churchill was born and raised in Maine. She studied at the Maine College of Art and in Italy earning her B.F.A. Living in Tampa has given her new perspective, warmth and a blossoming arts environment.

She paints and sculpts the ideal. Subject matter may be an idealized woman’s form, animals that she finds interesting, graceful, or visually stunning, and the lush tropical Florida vegetation that both naturally and forcefully grows here.

She believes that your home is your utopia or retreat saying “...the one place that you control and make your own, so fill it with what you want to look at and be surrounded by.” She loves to tackle commissioned projects because “People’s needs help spark the imagination.”

Her style is a blend of art nouveau and pop art influences painting in both acrylics and oils. She sculpts using aluminum wire with wood and stone carving soon to come. She likes to keep busy by not allowing stagnation due to a limit in materials or complacency in a medium.
