Sam Chivers
For several years Sam Chivers worked for a design/illustration studio producing work in a wide variety of styles for many different clients. In his spare time he explored more creative self-directed projects, bringing together his love of drawing and geeking out on the computer. His projects quite often ended up as screen prints, a process Sam has grown to love because of the restraints it imposes. His work naturally veers towards that blurry border point between science and nature. Recently, he’s become aware of how much he’s influenced by the countryside in which he lives and his tendency to fictionalize it through drawing.
