About Me: A Journey of Rejuvenation Through Creativity

Welcome to my art studio, a haven for creativity and rejuvenation nestled in the picturesque region of Pay de Gex, near Geneva, Switzerland. My name is Samantha, and I am passionate about helping others explore their creativity through the vibrant and expressive world of acrylic fluid art pour painting.

Originally from California, I spent many years as a secondary teacher of science before embarking on a new adventure with my family. In 2005, my husband and I, along with our children, moved to the South of France. After four years, we relocated to Pay de Gex, a beautiful area near Geneva, Switzerland. In 2016, we achieved a long-held dream and bought our first home, an old farmhouse with a barn that offered endless possibilities. Among it’s many treasures was a large workshop, which I transformed into my art studio. Here, I indulged in my love for furniture painting, DIY projects, and acrylic pour painting.

My journey with acrylic fluid art began in 2021, when I was introduced to paint pouring by a friend. After experiencing the benefits, I soon wanted to share it with others and started leading workshops to help others unlock their creative potential. What started as a personal exploration quickly grew into a source of inspiration and rejuvenation. As my children grew up and moved on, my time in the studio became my sanctuary. Disconnecting from the daily grind and immersing myself in the vibrant world of paint pouring, I found my energy and excitement renewed. This creative practice restored my resilience and confidence.

Through dedicated hours of playful experimentation with paint, I discovered the incredible mental health benefits of setting aside time for creative activities such as painting. My art studio became a lifeline, a place where I could refill my cup and face life's challenges with a refreshed perspective.

I am thrilled to share with you both the skills of acrylic fluid art and the transformative benefits of embracing your creativity. Paint - Create - Rejuvenate Workshops are designed to offer a space where you can escape the stresses of everyday life, embrace your creativity, and experience the joy and tranquility that comes with artistic expression. Whether you're a beginner or an experienced artist, I invite you to join me in discovering the transformative power of paint pouring.

Together, we will create, play, and rejuvenate, unlocking the joy that comes from exploring your artistic side.

Warm regards,

Samantha
