My favorite type of art to make is more of a vibe than a medium, I love visual art, storytelling, poetry and music but most of all I love creating art that makes me feel seen. art that makes me feel like I actually have a place on earth. I love the feeling of accomplishment after coming up with a great idea for a story or finishing a project and it coming out exactly how my minds eye pictured it I have always had the urge to create and when I do I feel peace
Where do you find inspiration?I find my inspiration in media like most people from my favorite musicians,writers,directors,etc. (Bowie,H.S.T.,Tarantino, and most importantly Mr. Depp) I am always grateful for these sources to show me I can succeed in this atmosphere while being a screwball weirdo who people don’t really get. Other than those guys I find my other inspirations in my own life story and telling myself I can do it even without being set up for success
What would you do with $25,000?I honestly couldn’t even imagine that amount of money first I would help out my family members so they don’t have to worry about anything anymore but I’d love to use some of the money to maybe go to a better college than the one I’m going to currently I’d also probably buy some sick clothes and weed obviously
