Jan Sam Art

Jan Vincent Sam, 27, is a new and emerging versatile artist from Kelowna, British Columbia.

The website features examples of his unique and interpretive “digital” portraits which are hand drawn and rendered utilizing computer software, as well as his one of a kind, “analog” originals.

Jan Sam, a true original himself, is also a songwriter, musician and poet. During the past six years he has experienced a number of soul searching events while on his journey; from living life on the streets as a busker to challenging himself spiritually, and coming to terms with his First Nations heritage, all the while with sketch pad in hand.

Jan’s experiences are reflected through his many art forms, portraiture being one of his passions. “Drawing people has always been a source of inspiration for me,” Jan explains, “ever since I was little I’ve noticed faces. Our faces are as unique as we are as individuals. Like photography captures the essence of a moment, I like to capture the essence of a person - their spirit.”

Jan’s distinctive images are expressed in a variety of mediums including digital renderings, drawings and mixed media.
