Art is my passion, and I love it because it will always boost my mood. I have been creating art since I was 2 years old and now I am 19.

My favorite type of art to create is colored pencil, mixed media, and pencil. I use a lot of different mediums but those are definitely my favorites. I like to draw just about anything, and I have drawn a handful of different things. I don’t like to specialize in just one thing, I like to expand and show others I can do anything art related.
Where do you find inspiration?I like to look on Pinterest for some inspiration, but I find a lot of inspiration in different tv shows or movies I enjoy. I get a lot of ideas from different things I see throughout the day, and I am always thinking of different things to create because art is my passion.
What would you do with $25,000?I would give a lot of the money to my parents because they have helped me financially through this art journey since I have graduated high school. I would also buy a bunch of supplies, and I would probably purchase a small building to get my art studio started. I would also like to donate some to the local animal shelter, and purchase some more clothing for myself so I can express myself through that as well.
