Fine art portraiture, landscapes and art workshops
Original oil paintings by Sam D'Ambruoso Sam paints in a post-impressionist realist style expressing his enthusiasm for the artistic use of light and dark values. He is dedicated in producing original portraits and paintings of American landscapes and the Italian countryside and particularly loves the challenge of "chasing the light" by capturing landscapes en plein air.
Traveling Palette™ Art Workshops: Italy & USA since 1997 Sam shares his passion for classical drawing and painting techniques by providing art instruction. His popular international workshops have drawn beginners to advanced artists from the US, Canada, Europe & Caribbean.
