MY NAME IS...


SAMANTHA MATHEWS    






I’m an artist and designer from Indy.

Cultivating creativity from the mundane, I shape projects with purpose and a distinctive flair, crafting designs that rise above the ordinary.

PORTFOLIO

      



I’m an unofficial certified trash goblin.

 Some of my most treasured items are things that I get from the side of the road.  Of course, I have regular hobbies too... I enjoy collecting HotWheels and making birthday cards for my friends and family.



I love tactile art-making, especially for my loved ones, I use scraps (ticket stubs, stamps, receipts) from when I’m with them to create a birthday card collage. This translates heavily into my current design work.
