Art By Jonah Samson


Up and coming artist and current medical doctor Jonah Samson went on a vintage picture shopping spree snatching up several old photos on Ebay.  After he received the photographs he was not content to cast the vintage images he purchased in an album only to collect dust and create buyers remorse.  Jonah's dark curiosity got the best of him and he went to town on these oldies but goodies.  In his latest art series "Paintings From the Archives of the Pleasantville Historical Society" Jonah took the liberty of painting in suggestive, dirty, and sometimes violent scenes over the old school prints.  Bloody noses and wangs are plentiful in these "enhanced" vintage photographs.
