    About Me

    My name is Sampson McFerrin and I am 17 years old. I love to play guitar and paint. When I'm not travelling I attend Western Canada High School in Calgary, AB. As well, I am a commissioned artist that enjoys to paint horses. Ever since I was born my parents have taken me travelling to many places and mostly by bicycle. I use my bicycle to go wherever I need to go and it is my favorite type of transport. I speak decently fluent French and I have a huge interest in many different subjects but art has to be my favorite.
