Hi, I'm Sam. Bros. I've been drawing & creating other forms of art for as long as I can remember. I
started making small sculptures out of aluminum foil. My first artistic subjects were dinosaurs,
wildlife, Dragons & mythical animals. I started drawing anime style art in 2000.

I studied professional photography for several years & earned certificates, but for the most part, I'm
self taught finding inspiration from my many interests: anthropology, paleontology, nature, wildlife,
conservation, martial arts, spiritual, anime & manga. Much of my inspiration comes from ukiyo-e,
cultures, mythology, archeology & music.

I love to draw, write manga, film & photograph stuff, festivals, birding, web design & being outdoors.

For pure enjoyment, I like old movies, samurai films & playing video games on my PS2 & Wii.

They're a few achievements I'm proud of. Ronin Yoshino manga won 3rd place in an ADV Films
"Comic Party" contest. Hidesato won 1st runner up in a FUNimation "School Rumble" contest. I
filmed & photographed the Sakura Matsuri held at Stony Brook University (Charles Wang Center) on
Long Island for the
Ryu Shu Kan dojo where I currently practice Taiko drumming.
