Sam Amberg's Column of Creation
Space to wander and wonder.
Welcome.
As an artist, I constantly seek inspiration from the world around me. Galleries, films, live performances, books, games, and more…all of these inputs swirl together in my mind, a storm of creativity. But it gets overcrowded in there! Not everything is immediately ready to be channeled into a drawing or painting. And even the finest honed minds are forgetful if we don’t intentionally capture what matters.
This newsletter is part journal, part playground where my experiences, observations, and musings can expand and intersect. Think of it as a stellar nursery, a place where the dust can settle and coalesce into new constellations.
The Details
Once a week, I will recap various adventures, trends, trains of thought, and artistic experiments from my creative practice. You will peek through a window into my mind, my studio, and my life.
Plus, paid subscribers get invited to monthly virtual meetups and first dibs on my artwork! I’ll share new pieces with this list before I post on social media.
In this column we:
center queer folks, especially femmes & thems
strive to stay soft in a hard world
value diverse perspectives
are sex-positive & body-positive
fill each other’s cups with stars
Don’t expect perfectly polished writing or finalized philosophies. In the Column of Creation, we bask in the beautiful, chaotic mess of what it means to live a creative life.
Happy reading, my shooting stars. I am so glad we’re on this pale blue dot together.
