About

SAMUEL NAVEDO

Born. 1974, Vega Baja, Puerto Rico

Born in the coastal town of Vega Baja, Puerto Rico, Samuel Navedo has always embraced the energy of colors. His vibrant, Caribbean roots, family and beauty of the island have long been the inspiration for his creative vision as is evident in each of warm, bright canvases.

A self-taught artist, Samuel began drawing caricatures at the early age of six. His undeniable artistic ability not only impressed his mother and five older siblings, but the entire community, and it was with this overwhelming support that drove Samuel to fully immerse himself in his art and pursue it as a career.

He began experimenting with different mediums and mixed painting techniques, and it was not until much later in his career that he chose canvas.

At age 29, Samuel moved to Miami, Florida, where he held his first gallery exhibit-”Colors Culturales” in December of 2003. He currently has his own gallery in the Bird Road Art District and continues to challenge himself and create art that captures his love for his culture and the color lives in his soul.
