Artist | Boise, Idaho
I’m Sam Archide, an artist and veteran based in Boise. I recently graduated with a BFA in illustration from Boise State. My work draws from my biracial heritage, and I enjoy creating stories inspired by Filipino folklore. Inspired by classic book illustrations and portraiture, I strive to create art that connects my cultural roots with my personal journey.
Thanks for visiting!
