Fantastic! Amazing! One of a kind! There really are not enough adjectives to describe the Wizard of Oz nursery Sam painted for our daughter. We gave Sam a basic idea of what we wanted, provided the primary colors of paint and watched her go. We were in awe watching her create the room. She started free handing with black paint, and then filled in the rest, creating such a wide array of colors. Even when we had a last minute thought, Sam took the time to add in what we wanted. She is a true professional and so remarkably talented. Our daughter is now one, and loves pointing at everything in her room.

Sam also painted our son's room/nursery for us in 2006. We had a little picture of what bedding we were going to order, and from that she designed his entire "truck" room, winding a road throughout the room and painting a cement mixer, dump truck, bulldozer and a "one-way" sign on the wall. Our son is 3 now and LOVES his room. He is so proud of it, and it truly is unique.

I would positively recommend Sam to design a room to fit your needs. Her ability to take an idea and create an entire room around it is astonishing, and we couldn't be more proud to show our guests the nurseries Sam created for us.

Samantha...

Wanted to let you know that your [Dreamer's Web] arrived safe and sound today. It's a very nice little piece and I'm pleased to have it. I have it in the window for now, and when it catches the eye it looks wholly organic, so, like all good art, it surprises as you approach, breaking into something new and coming alive in color. Very nice, indeed. More than I expected it to be. I thank you.

I also received the new Beatles box and a set of Haydn piano sonatas by Marc-Andre Hamelin. So far your piece has been able to accomodate itself to both types of music, so it looks like it has a home.

Thanks again. You should raise your prices a few dollars.

Colorful! We asked Sam to put her imagination to work and create a design for our exercise room. Our only request to Sam was the colors needed to be vibrant. Hoping the colorful room will encourage us to exercise. Wow! We now have the Samplicity Curly Guys on the walls in our exercise room. Sam is very talented and professional. We would recommend Sam to do a mural in your home.

Samantha recently painted a mural in my playroom. I run a daycare out of my house. I wanted a mural that was ageless, timeless, and sexless. Samantha and I discussed a few different ideas and determined that a tree house mural would be perfect. She listened to all the ideas my husband and I had and together we decided what was best to put into action.

The day she came and started painting I was anxious to see the ideas unfold. I had seen her work on the website and in her gallery, but being able to have that creative talent on my walls in my own home took my love of her art to a whole new level. It was so comfortable working with her that she let us observe and ask questions, and was even okay if we went to run errands for a few hours.

The mural itself is breathtaking. I have already had neighbors, friends, and daycare families in to show off my new wall. I guarantee we have the coolest playroom on the block… or even in the whole city! I never dreamed that my visions could be executed so perfectly and in such a fun way. Thank you so much Samantha; I can’t wait to have you over for our next mural! I am recommending Samplicity Art Hovel to everyone I know!
