What is your favorite type of art to create?

Creating women in prayer has become my obsession. It’s healing and peaceful. Something we all need. Acrylic paint and acrylic markets are my favorite right now but I will be investing spray paint. I recently attended a thrift fair and discovered that I want to do art on denim and create some one of a kind pieces. I want to mesh my art work and fashion together and see what happens. I love fashion and styling.

Where do you find inspiration?

The Crocker Art Museum in Sacramento California is my new favorite hangout. I am really inspired by all the different perspectives. I have been looking at artist on tick tok and instagram. So many people are so talented. Some of the pieces have brought tears to my eyes and I have learned new techniques. Bob Ross is a big reason I started painting. He is positive and motivating. His energy is so peaceful. Being a part of this competition is the biggest inspiration of all. Much love! Thank you!

What would you do with $25,000?

Art supplies are not cheap so I would definitely invest in more supplies. I also want to travel around and attend some art shows. Sip and paint parties is what got me painting. I had so much fun and I’ve been painting ever since. So I would like to do some paint parties for children and seniors free of charge. That’s a beautiful way to give back to the community.
