Creating art helps me work through a lot of my emotions and express myself much more fully than I ever could using words.

I love painting with watercolor, the depth you can achieve allows for so much emotion to shine through the work. I also love making wearable art; I am a designer and seamstress, and I recently learned how to weld to incorporate metalwork in my most recent capsule collection.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration from the wonderful people in my life and by surrounding myself in beautiful art and nature as much as possible. I live near New Orleans’ City Park and find so much inspiration walking around in the sculpture gardens.
What would you do with $25,000?$25,000 would be a life changing amount that would help me kickstart my small business. It’s a dream to have a bit more free-time from my jobs so I can focus on creating wearable art to share with others.
