For over
thirty years Sami has been working full time as freelance
commercial illustrator and fine artist. During this time, his
work has included commissions for portraits, landscapes, editorial
work and children's book illustrations, but to name a few.
The styles of Sami's fine art range from free-flowing dream like
impressionism to highly stylized contemporary, all the while
exciting us with a his rich palette of colours and textures.
Sami employs several mediums, ranging from pen and ink to oils,
watercolours, and acrylics to achieve his end results.
Many collectors of his work would agree; it is truly a delight
to experience Sami's work live, within the gallery environment,
under ideal and pristine viewing conditions. |
