I mostly love creating art as gifts for other people more than making it for myself. But when I do it’s a emotional process that makes it.

I’m kind of all over the place when I create art I love making all different kinds of art. I’m not really set to one ability many of the things that I create revolve around how I feel or if it is for a project it’s more in-depth than just following a prompt. I do my research on things before I start creating them.
Where do you find inspiration?My inspiration revolves around my mood so if I’m feeling sad or angry, my piece is gonna look a little bit different from when I’m happy or just doing it in the moment makes everything look a little bit different than how you would normally do it when you’re not feeling anything.
What would you do with $25,000?I would probably use most of it to help me finish my last year of college and some of it would go towards my mom and dad because they’ve helped me so much along the way and I guess I would give myself some of it to do whatever person with $25,000 would do.
