I love to draw and take photos. Specifically I love to draw comic book art and illustrations, as well as photograph the world around me whether it’s nature, action figures, cities, or people.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration everywhere I go. Buildings that I pass, times of the day, but especially in movies and tv shows I watch. I love when I shot in a film has vibrance and purpose, and always try to recreate it or do my own spin on it. In my drawings, I look to comic book artists such as Jim Lee, Jack Kirby, and Dan Mora
What would you do with $25,000?I would use $25,000 to put towards my college tuition. I want to study Cinema at VCU in Richmond. I would also love to invest a portion of it.
