Sam English Sr

Sam English, Sr (Born 1942) is active/lives in New Mexico, Arizona.  Sam English Sr is known for Indian culture painting of portraits, genre, symbolism, poster design, gallery owner.

If left to his own devices, Sam English would give away all his material things to help Indian people. Sam is just that way. He is a man of immense compassion and sensitivity for those in need. A distinguished contemporary Indian artist, Sam is truly an individual who cares for people, especially "his" Indian people.

The first time that we met Sam was in early 1988, when we sat down and discussed the design of a poster that he later created and donated to the conference entitled "Promoting Child Protection in Indian Country," held in Green Bay, Wisconsin June 28-30, 1988. The painting for the poster was an inspiring image, depicting an Indian family surrounded by a stylized eagle drawn in a circle with delicate fine-line portraits of tribal elders. Sam characterized the circle, the eagle, and elders as symbols for love, courage, and wisdom. The rootlike tendrils emanating from the feet of the figures, he says, symbolize "that we are of the earth, at one with Mother Earth."
