About

My name is Samantha Tarracino Gonzalez, and I'm born and raised in Key West Florida. I discovered my love for arts and crafts several years ago when my mom took me to my first painting boot camp with the great Rick Worth.  I started with acrylic paintings. I would sell my paintings at the Key West Sunset Celebration and on Duval St. as a street vendor. Acrylic paintings led me to the discovery of 
Resin art, which I picked up right away and became not only a skilled resin artist but also a resin art teacher on YouTube, where i have over 30k followers. Crafting is my life!  And I am constantly picking up new crafts and challenging myself to learn new things. It was actually my husband's idea to make soap. I said sure why not? Another hobby, YES! I did months of research, and I knew once I made my first batch of soap that I found THE craft! I absolutely love making soap and now i have expanded to lotions and other beauty products. I mostly work from home, but you can still find me, when the weather is nice, out on Duval St. or at sunset selling my soaps and enjoying the island life.
