SamiaLynn by Samantha Shammas

I combine my love for fashion and art through illustration and design, specializing in all things custom. I work directly with clients as well as businesses to help bring their visions to life, whether that be through visual story telling, custom projects, or sketching live at an event. Regardless if you’re getting something for your business or a personal piece, I’m bringing 10 years of learning, expertise, and customer service to your project to give you not only something beautiful that you will connect with, but also an amazing experience that is unique to you or your clients. I’m based in Washington DC and New York City and I hold a Bachelors of Fine Arts in Fashion Design from Parsons New School for Design where I studied evening wear and couture techniques. My inspiration? Travel! The wanderlust is real and I love exploring the intricacies of new places and cultures around the world. I have a passion for cultural diversity and strive to highlight and celebrate it throughout my work.

As a minority myself, I strive to bring diversity and inclusivity to the art and design industry. My business does not and will not ever discriminate anyone based on nationality, ethnicity/race, size, religious preferences, or gender/sex orientations.

I am fully vaccinated and wear a mask to all events

My business strives to be as sustainable as we can at this time. This includes using recyclable materials, limited plastics, and conscientious purchasing practices
