About Me.

Hey! My name is Samuel Earp, a realism artist who loves to paint landscapes in oils.

I was born on the island of Guernsey in 1979 but grew up in the southwest of England, where I did a lot of drawing and painting from an early age. I have always loved landscape art, even as a child. I moved to the beautiful country of New Zealand in 2009 and have been there ever since.

I have a passion for painting landscapes, especially water and the sea, which I enjoy painting most of all. I also love to paint outdoors on location (en plein air). Painting gives me an enormous sense of well-being and connectedness. I especially love the dramatic landscapes and beautiful colours that are so unique to the New Zealand wilderness and I channel this into my mountain paintings.

I also teach my painting techniques through my YouTube channel and other website at samuelearp.com dedicated to painting lessons, teaching and improving your painting skills. 

I hope you enjoy my website; if you have any questions regarding my artwork or would like help with your painting, please feel free to contact me. Welcome, and thanks for stopping by. 😊
