Sam Toft’s narrative paintings are quirky, fun and beautifully composed. Born in June 1964 Sam’s earliest ambition amongst others was to work in a post office; luckily for art lovers, after inspired tutelage at Liverpool Community College, Sam decided to “give it a go” with her pictures.
Feeling ready to create a new body of work
Sam has created an exclusive collection for
Collier & Dobson. The sixteen limited
edition prints feature Sam’s now infamous
characters, “The Mustard’s”, Ernest
Hemingway Mustard and his dear lady wife
Violet along with their much loved eccentric
friends and pets. Using mixed media, pencil,
oil pastels, coloured inks and her own
idiomatic techniques, Sam depicts a seaside
world of faded ice-cream colours where the
breeze is always blowing and life is utterly
delicious.
