Traditionally, I stick with watercolor as my main medium, I like to focus on realism when creating pieces wether it’s animals, food, or anything that has caught my eye that I’d like to practice or recreate. I draw and tend to sketch with graphic pencils and charcoal. Recently, I’ve started getting into photography and have been drawn to both urban landscape and nature photography.
Where do you find inspiration?Being in nature, exploring new cities and areas and being surrounded by people who allow me to feel creative and motivate me to create in all my passions such as painting, sketching, baking, photography and pottery.
What would you do with $25,000?I would pay off the rest of the my student loans and any remainder debt my family has accumulated. With the rest of the money. I would use it to gather more art supplies and dabble in more expensive things such as pottery and photography. Lastly, signing up for art courses to develop my skills.
