This art is important to me. Shadow boxes have been a long time hobby of mine. I love creating a world behind the glass with a story.

Anything with my hands. I love utilizing my fingers to work on all different mediums, but shadow boxes of history is my specialty, it seems. I also love working with markers and basic pens. Using basic ink to create a fantastic piece is truly rewarding to myself.
Where do you find inspiration?I like to spend my time outside, hearing the wind, the water, the trees rustling. Other times I see strange shapes in regular objects and draw them into reality.
What would you do with $25,000?Right now I am trying to build a homestead from the ground up. I would use that money for thr basic needs of power and water, and later invest in animals and bees. There are also berry bushes. I would love to harvest honey to make and sell in different flavors. I would make a small stall to sell goods from my homestead.
