Art is how I translate feelings, it’s my escape, my voice, and the place I feel most like myself.

I enjoy working with both acrylic and watercolor paints. Acrylic lets me build bold, layered pieces with strong color, while watercolor allows me to create softer, more fluid designs.
Where do you find inspiration?I usually get inspired by a strong feeling or a moment that sticks with me. It feels like a pull to create something that reflects that emotion. I also find inspiration in everyday life, colors, and small details around me that most people might overlook.
What would you do with $25,000?I would put the money toward college to support my education and future career. It would help cover tuition, art supplies, and other expenses, allowing me to focus more on developing my skills and less on financial stress.
