Samantha Zimmermann’s Fine Art

54 minutes

Like most enthusiasts, her love for cars and motorsports began at a young age. Formula 1 was a must on Sunday mornings. Raised in a family of NASA and Lockheed Martin engineers and technical drawers, our guest's interest in the technicalities and precise nature of mechanical ingenuity came easily. Her childhood sweetheart Michael took her to her first 24 Hours of Daytona in 2012, and her passion for all things motorsports has only continued to flourish from then through today.

Samantha Zimmermann is a fine artist specializing in realism, with the breadth of her work consisting of automotive and motorsports subjects. She joins us from her home studio in San Antonio, Florida, to tell us how she blended her passion for art and motorsports into a blossoming career.
