Heartbeats (Copy) — Heartbeats

Samantha Lewis | Heartbeats | Wood, Crystal, Acrylic | 10" x 12" | $497.00
A pair of “hearts” in footwear form - connect our adoration of the elements. The “hearts” demonstrate our connection to the earth: love for our fellow humans and surroundings.
The core of this piece are repurposed wooden shoes originally from Holland. Wooden “veins”, remnants from another nature-based piece that have found a perfect home on this pair of shoes, finished with accents of wooden leaves and fiery crystal. Inspiration from another mineral, gold from the depths of the soil, sets the interior finish of the “hearts” apart from the intricacies of the outward appearance.
Samantha is an upcycling artist with a focus to repurpose everyday items into something spectacular. As a solo exhibitor and seven-time ArtPrize artist, she is fueled by an attitude of environmental gratitude.
All Samantha’s art is designed and made in her studio in Livonia, Michigan. You can see more at foundpennystudio.com

My paintings tell a story with the goal to help viewers of every background and walk of life develop and strengthen their inner vision. My aim is to educate the spirit of our age in order to obtain a worldliness that transcends language and cultural barriers.
