Creating art helps me better connect with people, understanding their archetypes and personalities in ways i couldn’t before.

I mainly stick to drawing characters from medias that I enjoy, as well as some of my own characters. Stylistically I draw in a more rendered style of what many would consider “anime” and tend to work on mediums such as watercolor, sketching/pencil drawing, and a little bit of digital.
Where do you find inspiration?I find a lot of inspiration in the shows or movies I watch or games I play. Most of the media I consume is animated in some way, which is likely what grew my interest in art. But there are often moments in my everyday life that compel me to draw. Moments with friends, quiet days at a park, the sunset—every things that feel special.
What would you do with $25,000?I probably wouldn’t be able to use much of it for entertainment purposes, most going to a college fund or programs to better help prepare me for my future. But with what’s left, I’d probably spend it to go somewhere with friends and family.
