Well, hello! I am Sam and I’m new here.
I live on the central coast of California and enjoy hiking in the local hills and along the rocky beaches. I am deeply inspired by the unmatched beauty of this place. But, lately, I have been feeling the call of the open road and sense an adventure is onthe horizon … Stay tuned to see how it all unfolds!
I am a prolific photographer, designer and artist with a unique view of the world. At present, I am particularly enamored [one might say addicted] to using my photography in the creation of patterns. I find them EVERYWHERE and in EVERYTHING … It blows my mind!
Being part of a community that values the meaning behind the work is incredibly refreshing and exciting. I look forward to hearing your stories as well as sharing mine through my art.

Welcome to steemit @samanthajbarnes. It seems we have something in common which is photography. You will find a very strong community here which is incredibly helpful and photography is also the 3rd trending topic on steemit.
Thank you for the warm welcome. I am wandering around now, acquainting myself and trying to figure things out. Looks like this will be an excellent new adventure for me and look forward to meeting you all.
Welcome to Steem @samanthajbarnes I have sent you a tip
Hi Sam. welcome ..
In spanish: Hola Sam, bienvenida.
Hola! Gracias!!!
Welcome! California is beautiful. I just returned home from San Diego and I miss it there. All the best to you here!
Thanks! San Diego is pretty fabulous...I can understand why you would miss it. Best regards to you as well.
Hi @samanthajbarnes I see that your face has gotten cropped out of your post preview like my introduction post haha
Welcome to the platform :)
Looks like we get to figure this out together. :) Thanks for the welcome!
Yes indeed haha
Your silk scarfs look very high quality, do you design any other items?
My big focus right now is on designing the actual patterns themselves and figuring out the best way for them to be presented. I have found Redbubble to be a good way to get your designs uploaded and see what they look like on a large variety of products. I haven't launched my site there yet but I am close. I have printed on fabric for a few friends through the same source that prints my scarves. I am also exploring Spoonflower to get my designs out there through that avenue...fabric, wallpaper, home decor... Lots of options and just trying to focus. Steemit is brand new to me so we will see how that fits into this online world I am creating for myself. Thanks for taking the time to check out my scarves, by the way.
Hi Sam - welcome to Steemit - have a look at @Deimus - he is doing a series on artists you may want to connect with
Hello and thank you for the warm welcome. I will most certainly check out his feed/page.
He's doing a great job promoting artists and connecting them to one another as well
Excellent! I do need help promoting myself, for some reason that is so excruciating for me.
welcome to steemit...^^
Thank you so much!
welcome to the community :) i have also been fond of the local hills in my country and just amazed how peaceful they are :) you can see my posts about them :) hope they are same in your country as well... keep the good work going:)
Thank you!!! Yes, these local hills have been a sanctuary for me over the last couple of years. They are a nice retreat so close to my home. More "good work" to come! :)
