I create through painting because it’s where I feel most connected. My art is meant to carry meaning. I’ve always been drawn to themes of love and preserving Mother Nature, but lately I’m exploring the mind. A chaotic, and beautiful thing of so many perspectives . Art allows me convey a message that may be hard to put into words.
Where do you find inspiration?Almost everything I see is art as it takes many forms. Recently music has been inspiring. I take the feeling is brings me and bounce ideas off of it. I also may connect it to a previously thought idea. Even if the piece itself is not mixed media, the process was, making it even more important and creative.
What would you do with $25,000?I would indulge in more art supplies as well as make way to personal goals. Recently I’ve been painting on anything or crafting as money has been very tight recently. I’d also use it to dive deeper into getting my art out there and sharing messages the world needs to feel.
