I try to balance between contemporary and abstract. Somedays I’ll feel like Eddie Martinez and some days I’ll feel like Brad Robson. My goal is to not only create cool paintings but also paintings that can have infinite interpretations.
Where do you find inspiration?It sounds very cliche but my everyday life and surroundings are my biggest inspiration to my paintings. From watching a random movie to seeing some graffiti in a public restroom. (Instagram): adamvillegas_
What would you do with $25,000?I would first help out my family as best as I could with it and the rest I would put towards a nice art studio in LA.
