Learn about Sam Smith

Sam Smith thrives on a spectrum of creative challenges. By day, she’s a Managing Partner and the Executive Creative Director at Shine United, leading creative teams to build ambitious brands and craft captivating multi-media campaigns.

Off the clock, you’ll find her knee-deep in DIY adventures, often with the assistance of her five- and seven-year-olds, and teaching others to tackle their own projects at @onesmithstory. With her interior design business, One Smith Studio, she designs joyful residential and commercial spaces, including the vibrant Little Village Play Cafe in Wauwatosa.

Our theme for March is PERSPECTIVE.

It was chosen by our Fargo chapter and illustrated by Fred Gaye Wremeo.

Every creative act is an attempt to share a unique perspective on some slice of the world. What you see — and how you see it — shapes your beliefs. So, what’s your point of view? And how are you putting it into your work? What was the last piece of music, writing, illustration, or film that opened a new window on the world for you?

One of the most impactful artistic innovations was linear perspective; widely credited to Fillipo Brunelleschi in the early 14th century. This breakthrough enabled artists to create the illusion of three-dimensional space on a flat canvas, paving the way for the ornate art and architecture of the Renaissance. Today, it feels like we are at another precipice with AI generated images and video. We don’t know how this rapidly emerging artistic tech will shape our perspectives. The machine is already capable of evoking real emotions. But only we can understand those feelings.
