Artist Spotlight: Samuel Rodriguez

A selection of gorgeous paintings by San Jose-based artist Samuel Rodriguez (some digital, some traditional). Inspired by the duality of the contemporary moment — that is, the hybridization of our material world with a technological one — Rodriguez explores the rise in cultural exchange that has arisen from greater tech use and globalization:

“I think of my works as landscape paintings, except my observations consist of language, and culture – in the same way someone would render a physical landscape I render cultural ones. I’m observing the cultural metaphorical landscape.”

Sam has recently started a Youtube channel offering a peek into his digital process, so if you’ve got an iPad Pro and Procreate you should definitely check his videos. See more of Sam’s work below.

Each week our members share their work with us and we highlight the best of these submissions as Editors’ Picks. If you have work to share, you can learn more about becoming a member.
