I create art because I have a love for my mediums. If it’s ball point pen or colored pencil, it’s soothing to the soul!

My favorite art to create is anything I can transform into something that speaks to me. When people see my art they know it has my passion through and through.

What would you do with $25,000?I would put $25,000 towards paying off my student loans, and to open my own tattoo studio in the future. I can see great things for my career so there would be no doubt about it!
