Testimonials

What is everyone saying about me?

Sam is an asset to any artistic endeavor. She literally made our inaugural “Krampuslauf” event in Elgin, IL a success through her volunteer participation, which was spot on as to what we needed – she was the only one to show up in a full handmade costume! Her talent was much appreciated by the audience.

– John LaFleur (Oddball Art Labs)

Samantha has a tremendous eye for detail and produces top-notch results. It was a pleasure working with her!

– David Hall

Sam makes the coolest art. She can do almost anything!
