I grew up in residential facilities/foster homes and it was the only thing that pulled me away from all of that and into my own world.

I love drawing nature and cartoons, anything funky that comes to mind! Every artist has their own flare or way they present themselves on paper. Although I cannot describe mine I believe it speaks for itself.
Where do you find inspiration?I have found inspiration in the objects or people around me! I have found comfort in art so when I am in social gatherings i am often found with a pen and a paper. I have found that it’s an amazing conversation starter as well as my comfort. Others are a great way to get new ideas and fresh eyes!
What would you do with $25,000?I would invest it in my daughter’s savings fund that I started so she doesn’t start with nothing. The rest I would invest in her happiness, our home, and some bills of course lol!
