Painting with acrylics on many subjects. Flowers, landscapes, often using actual pieces of landscapes to accentuate the painting. Fantasy figures & abstracts
Where do you find inspiration?In my everyday life, my desires & dreams. Sometimes I will create a specific painting for a specific purpose. An especially beautiful frame that I picked up at a yardsale or feeling that I needed a particular something for somewhere.
What would you do with $25,000?First, I would move out of the tiny (150 Sq. Ft) apartment I live in to a freestanding house with a yard so I could plant flowers and a vegetable garden. I would set up a creative area & buy art supplies. I would get a rescue cat or dog for emotional support for my PTSD. I would go to the dentist and get my teeth fixed. I would get my eye glasses updated. I would get my daughter a car so she wouldn't need to use mine 95% of the time. I would help people when I could.
