Sammoun Fine Arts
About the Artist
This piece from the series L’Envolée (translates from French as Takeoff ) reflects the artist’s fascination with the sight of Canadian geese. The scene depicts a location near the city of Sorel, Quebec, along the St. Lawrence River, which lies on the birds’ migration route. Flocks of white birds lift into the blue sky above golden fields, beside the shimmering blue of the river, a color palette often favored by the artist.
His rendering of the moment of takeoff becomes a poetic narrative of freedom and movement.
Through this work, Samir Sammoun captures the emotion of love, peace, and the powerful sense of community.

Sammoun began painting at the age of 13. He graduated from the Art and Craft School in Beirut, earning a technical degree in electronics in 1969.

A luminous gem from Samir Sammoun’s Beach series, this piece captures the timeless rhythm of shoreline life. The triptych Sunrise on the Beach reflects the artist’s deep fascination with the sun-drenched shores of Florida, portraying the majestic atmosphere of its seaside view.
Each morning, the artist visited the beach before sunrise, inspired by the peaceful power and tranquility of the scene. Moved by this daily ritual, he decided to create the triptych. During several of these painting sessions, a passerby stopped to observe the creative process — and was eventually captured in the composition itself.
The romantic atmosphere of the sunrise evokes a sense of hope and renewal — an anticipation of new life and a new day. It is a moment filled with kindness and quiet joy, as the warmth and light of the sun return once again.

Brossard, town, where artist lives, particularly Rhône and Sorbonne Parks. These locations, near the artist’s home, inspired his famous Walking with Giants autumn series.

Apple blossoms are an important subject in Samir Sammoun’s work. Each May, the artist visits the orchards for plein air sessions, painting directly among the blooming trees and flowers.
Immersed in the atmosphere and the ritual of renewal, he sketches and creates small studies on-site. These initial impressions then evolve into larger compositions in the studio, where the spirit of spring continues to blossom on canvas.

Executed in her distinctive cordocentric style — a heart-centered worldview grounded in love and unity — Order radiates a sense of luminous transparency and spiritual clarity. Symbolic colors and fluid abstract forms are interwoven into a living structure, suggesting a deeper harmony that transcends the visible.
As with other works in the series, Order is both intimate and universal: a poetic reflection on the invisible forces that guide human experience. It invites viewers to contemplate the beauty of inner alignment, memory, and transcendence — the eternal energy of possibility, renewal, and love.

The Mediterranean is one of Samir Sammoun’s major series. Born in Lebanon, the artist often returns to this landscape, drawing inspiration from his homeland. The scenes in this series emerge from his walks through the region, where green winter fields transform into golden plains in the summer sun.
This transformation, captured on canvas, feels almost surreal, as if an invisible force reshapes the land into something mythic. The artist sketches while walking, later transforming his observations into luminous, dreamlike scenes. It is a collaboration between blue sky, blue mountains, the deep blue sea, and the sunburnt yellow of summer grass.

In Genius, abstract forms and radiant forms of symbolic color unfold like a spiritual current, embodying the invisible yet ever-present energies that guide and uplift human existence. The work carries a transcendent quality: it speaks not only of personal vision but of universal truths, inviting viewers to sense the mystery of life that lies beyond the visible.
This painting resonates deeply with Yuryk’s ongoing Blue Birds series, inspired by Maeterlinck’s poetic vision of the bird as a symbol of happiness, fragility, and eternal hope. Just as the blue bird represents humanity’s search for harmony, Genius reflects the inner spirit in flight — resilience, inspiration, and the transcendent power of the human soul.
This work embodies both a personal journey and a hopeful vision for a better future. Through Genius, Yuryk offers a contemplative space where art becomes a vessel of light, memory, and transcendence — a reminder that nothing vanishes into oblivion, but transforms into energy, love, and the enduring rhythm of life.

An Honored Artist of Ukraine, Yuryk studied at the Lviv Professional College of Arts and Lviv Polytechnic University, earning a Ph.D. in 2012.
