I’m Sam, also known as Saints, an artist exploring faith, love, life, death, destiny, and technology through evocative visual narratives. My journey took me in the realms of off-set and digital printing, working with photography and design studios to create CD/DVD cover art for singers and materials for events, shows, and spectacles. I’ve honed my craft with oil painting, illustration, and spray-painted graffiti, later embracing AI for still images, image-to-video, digital art, collages, and editing. My graphic design background, specializing in off-set printing, packaging, editorial layout, and visual identity, ensures a precise approach to image-making, while my experience as a painter and illustrator enhances my focus on composition, materiality, and spatial dynamics in both physical and digital mediums.
My current work embraces cinematic minimalism and surrealism, using high-contrast lighting, dramatic chiaroscuro, and a palette of cinematic greens, warm skin tones, blue shades and golden yellows to evoke emotional depth with visual clarity. I’ve also ventured into interactive and generative art with GLSL and Java, creating immersive experiences that push traditional boundaries and invite deeper engagement.
For the past five years, I’ve been immersed in the blockchain and NFT space, contributing to decentralized gaming projects and collectible series. This has shaped a multidisciplinary workflow blending creative direction, smart contract expertise, copywriting, and blockchain forensics, allowing my art to resonate aesthetically, narratively, and technologically. My goal is to craft pieces that inspire contemplation, offering a contemporary, digital lens on universal human themes, bridging the timeless and innovative.
