To this day, the artist vividly recalls the colourful Mediterranean landscape of his childhood. At age 21, Samir immigrated to Canada where he obtained degrees in electronic engineering and telecommunications. Since graduation, he has pursued his professional career as well as his passion, painting.<\/p>\n<p>Chris Klimantiris, who began representing Samir Sammoun in 1996, provides an eloquent reaction to the artists work. The first time that I saw Samirs paintings, I was fascinated by his refined technique. I felt like a time traveler, transported to turn-of-the-century Paris and the Impressionists.<\/p>\n<p>Samir Sammoun\u2019s originality and unique style have caught the attention of viewers, collectors and art lovers in Canada and the United States. When he first showed his work at ArtExpo in New York in 1996, the reaction was immediate and positive. Robert L. Mooney, Director of the Galleries J.R. Mooney, San Antonio, Texas wrote the following: \u00ab\u2009J.R. Mooney Galleries of Fine Art has had the pleasure of representing the artwork of Samir Sammoun to our collectors in the southwestern U.S. for the last two years. The fresh colorful impressionistic renditions presented in his artwork have been received with unprecedented enthusiasm&#8230; Samir is a fresh and exciting talent depicting the landscapes he sees in rich colours with his own wonderfully unique impressionistic style\u2009\u00bb.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"560\" height=\"315\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/YSw8JlbCt-w?si=sDPSg9nn7GGik9Kr\" title=\"YouTube video player\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Available Works Available Books Biography Samir Sammoun was born in 1952 in a quaint Lebanese &#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":4,"featured_media":10764,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[2,4,3],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-6735","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-artists","category-gallery-artists","category-masters"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/balcondart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6735","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/balcondart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/balcondart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/balcondart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/4"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/balcondart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=6735"}],"version-history":[{"count":10,"href":"https:\/\/balcondart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6735\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":45355,"href":"https:\/\/balcondart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/6735\/revisions\/45355"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/balcondart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/10764"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/balcondart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=6735"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/balcondart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=6735"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/balcondart.com\/en\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=6735"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
