My Dad was an artist my Grandpa was an artist. It’s my daily meditation routine that I practice at the end of my day.

I’ve always enjoyed what I call “freestyle art”. No idea where it’s gonna go just start drawing and boxing out different shapes or images I find interesting. This feels exciting because you don’t know what will happen you’re just figuring it out as you go. It can be frustrating and get muddy at times but you can always paint over the part you don’t like and add something different. My Dad taught me a lot about art as far as having a plan, color scheme and I guess I’m just a rebel.
Where do you find inspiration?My family always inspires me to get better and looking at my Grandpa /Dads artwork. Nature is always inspiring, the Fibonacci sequence in trees, flowers. Classic tattoos by Bet Grimm, Sailor Jerry. Ed Hardys abstract stuff. I find it in documentaries about cults and secret societies.
What would you do with $25,000?I would buy a car, my current vehicle is paid off but on its last leg. Maybe buy a motorcycle! My wife would kill me! I need an air conditioner in my house summers here are hotter than a teeter totter in July.
