I create art to connect and share the joy, beauty and light that can come out life's journey (even from the darkest parts)

My favorite type of art I like to create is mixed media or acrylic paintings. Right now I enjoy expresionistic and impressionistic styles the most. I often use a limited palette to create my pieces as well.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration all around me. Sometimes from music, nature, life situations, deep thoughts, inner turmiol, and my spirituality.
What would you do with $25,000?I would use it towards my dream of opening a community art space where all people can come to create art. This includes free community art days and paid classes with different ages groups, and I would lead/facilitate therapeutic process art projects as well. I would collaborate with others in the community to strengthen families, help build connections, and heal with art.
