Occasionally, I dip my toes into literary waters, although I wouldn’t call melself a writer, more an artist who loves the shape of language and the fluidity of translation. Living on breathtaking Ngunnawal/Ngambri Country in Canberra Australia, I'm fuelled by a desire to repurpose objects into environments. I fixate on translating everyday objects (often designed to be discarded after a single use) into textural marks, unburdened by excess and liberated through muted-earthy colour palettes. In response to overconsumption,I'm drawn to paint: antique, vintage, handcrafted and upcycled subject matter. Within my art practice, I engage with core concepts of value and the root of aesthetics, p e r c e p t i o n… I try to encourage viewers to engage with with not only ‘the seen’, but also to experience ‘the felt'. Painted subject matter to me, doesn’t exist to be simply looked at. My art acts as stimuli for: stories, ideas, beliefs, and images to be reimagined. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5dde507c4d009912ef73e968/1648790349063-D61J3P1QXRH786MK0VPV/processed_EDITSCAN_20220327_0001.jpg Samantha Louise Mary - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5dde507c4d009912ef73e968/1650004099057-YB126NLYF1BA7N3WM8LY/SCAN_20220415_0012.jpg Samantha Louise Mary - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5dde507c4d009912ef73e968/1650096701577-6C6E44EDYMLHJ9RNHSL3/PXL_20220226_013452564_2+%281%29.jpg Samantha Louise Mary - Make it stand out Whatever it is, the way you tell your story online can make all the difference. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5dde507c4d009912ef73e968/86cc37e3-92e0-48c8-9be8-df2b9f95325a/PXL_20220301_225840868.jpg Samantha Louise Mary - Reading Reflections Aesthetic-responsive writing.

Unconcealed lavender brushstrokes act as the backdrop for an antique bronze vase. Living in a repurposed vintage frame, the artwork reflects reimagined symbols of beauty, flowers. Old Fashioned On The Rocks responds to the artist’s (self-imposed) burden, to both captivate the viewer’s eye while also stimulating the viewer’s mind. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5dde507c4d009912ef73e968/351a5b4a-0e5f-470b-a0e7-1997437bed73/PXL_20250328_014342029.PORTRAIT.ORIGINAL.jpg REIMAGINING Intimate 2025, framed synthetic polymer paint on acrylic paper 350gsm, artwork 6cm x8cm, (including frame) 10cm x 12cm (SOLD) Intimate isn’t explicit, it subtly suggests objects of pleasure, enhancement and care: vibrators a red-light therapy device and a pelvic-floor trainer. Here, the personal becomes sociological and what was once private becomes unapologetically thrusted into the public arena. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5dde507c4d009912ef73e968/4f3a0dec-e78e-4498-93a9-403f8f38529b/PXL_20250328_014319900.PORTRAIT.ORIGINAL+%281%29.jpg REIMAGINING Concealed 2025, framed synthetic polymer paint on acrylic paper 350gsm 12cm x 17cm, (including frame) 16cm x 21cm (SOLD) Concealed prompts the viewer to question what women are taught to hide; which truths provoke public and private disgust and why? A commonly used and disposable object, a tampon, rests on a bed of ambiguous stormy material, amplified by a backdrop of onyx unresolved brush strokes. In this still life, it's not the subject matter which demands attention, but the act of paying attention at all. What happens when beauty and discomfort share a space? What would it look and feel like to reconsider where shame is directed?
