I create art because it’s therapeutic for me. It’s my peace, my safe haven. Creating is my sanity. Creating gives me reason and purpose.

I love painting/drawing people/faces. God js such an amazing, beautiful artist and looking at the different variety of people, the different shades, different faces! It’s just so amazing! I love capturing the emotion in someone’s face or in someone’s eyes or whatever it may be and then making my own little personal spin on the image i use with the ideas and creativity the Lord gives me.. it’s just genuinely so exciting!
Where do you find inspiration?I can find inspiration anywhere. I genuinely give credit to the Almighty for the gift that i have and the things that i can create because i know He is the reason. I wouldn’t be able to do what i do or think how i think or even create how i create. He’s my source and inspiration. I could be watching a movie or show, listening to music or even sitting outside and inspiration would hit me! You know? Lol it’s amazing.
What would you do with $25,000?Maaannn… if i had 25,000.. and this is me being honest here.. i would get a car! Then get an apartment! A place of my own! A place of peace and comfortability. A place where i can be myself and create in piece. I wouldn’t honestly turn my apartment into like a mini art studio/museum. It excites me because i see the vision almost everyday the Lord wakes me! Then i would rack up on art supplies and just create! Invest in myself and my art career full time! I know i can do it. I just know i can.
