ABOUT THE ARTIST

Samantha Mendoza is a visual artist based in Kansas City, Missouri. Operating in traditional print media, she creates works steeped in the rich tradition of storytelling. These pieces often blend personal inquiries and universal narratives. She began her journey into print at College of the Sequoias in Visalia, California– later earning a BFA from the Kansas City Art Institute and an MFA from Northern Illinois University. Samantha is now the co-founder of Twin Hound Print Shop, a printmaking studio located in Kansas City’s historic West Bottoms.
