Samantha Humphreys

Born in Liverpool, England, Samantha Humphreys is an Artist, Educator and certified Therapeutic Art Coach/Journal Therapist based in Essex. Her own art practice has explored the boundary between the physical and online presence, memory, variations to the state of mind and the conscious and unconscious blurring of the line between work and play.

Samantha’s practice now largely focuses on how creative activity can facilitate good mental health and wellbeing and has written a series of workshops to explore this. These workshops combine art with wellness by bringing into play internal and external resources that we already possess; to nurture in participants,  a positive mindful practice of their  own.

In her role as an educator, Samantha hopes to foster an understanding of the considerable real world value of art education in her learners from the start of their learning journey at whatever stage in life that may be.
