Quick Notes in less than 250 words

Summer time and a lot more to come, very soon. Meanwhile, I have decided to create a new section on this blog: Quick Notes. In less than 250 words, I will share with you some useful (as far as I will be able to) news. For a while now I have been asked to post more often if I could; since I can’t post as often as I would like to, I thought maybe ... More

There is also a Twitter Feed so you can follow the latest tweets from the Sama Gazette and mines. The design is clean and easy to navigate. I hope you like it. I ... More

Third anniversary already? Time passes too quickly!

This month is the Blog’s third anniversary. Everything started in April 2007 and now here we are, three years later. How is it even possible time passes so quickly, I wonder everyday.

A brand new World of Sama Art Website has opened



It’s online. The new World of Sama Art Website is now opened to everyone.

Second time’s a charm; the second anniversary has come!

Here we are. The second blog’s anniversary. I am amazed. Truly. When I look back when this blog was launched, I wasn’t convinced of the interest of having a blog.

Q&A: Replies sent + Website redesign + Burma and China

When I decided (following your suggestion) to set a Q&A session for the first anniversary of this blog, I thought it could be a good idea to let you ask me ‘some’ questions. But I didn’t expect there would be so many! I hope it doesn’t sound pretentious, not that I received ten of thousands of questions, but some were kinda ... More
