Feature of the Moment:

My "open studio" space in Littlefork is in the process of being set up... soon you'll be able to come visit!


     Remember: You can keep track of my current activity at the bottom of this Welcome page; I post whenever I add a new item!

Samplicity Art Hovel is currently a small space that houses a combination of many art-related pursuits. First of all, it provides studio space for the resident artist. Secondly, it has room to display and sell the art that is created. Samantha Ann Bohnert does oil painting, mural/nursery painting, drawing, sculpting in many media, woodworking, calligraphy, textile work, and much more. Eventually, Samplicity Art Hovel will expand or move to become a larger studio and gallery space for the community and other artists.

A note about my online process:
Rather than go through a middle-man seller, I prefer to have as personal contact as possible with my customers. On the store pages, you can click on links to e-mail me with regards to any piece you would like to buy or ask more about. At that time, I will calculate how much it will cost to ship that particular piece. Then I will get back to you about the final cost and we will be able to go from there.

No new hours yet...
I am planning an "open studio" space at our new home in Littlefork.

I'm moving up to Littlefork, MN in the beginning of August, so I will be packing up the Glencoe Hovel in the middle of July. Come visit before it's too late!
