My favorite type of art I love to create is Expressionism. I love seeing how the specific type of art we create can create different emotions depending on how we look at the object. I work with all art media, but I love focusing on photography. How we can come together as a community to discuss what we see and how the art makes us feel. It brings in joy and unlocks memories we creators as well as the audience relive again, Bringing in the community closer.
Where do you find inspiration?I love to explore all different kinds of materials that is able to create a story. A story that can make us cherish who we are as a person. I love to explore the childish and playfulness in my works. I love to imagine how I could take an object and create a fun story if it were to be alive. Open my past and show the innocence of a playful childhood.
What would you do with $25,000?I would love to help my family reach their goals quicker. I would like to help them pay off their debts and be there for them as much as they were here for me to help me achieve my goals in going to college to become an art therapist. I would love to return the favor and make sure they are well taken care of. With the money left over I would like to use the rest towards my education to help me get to my dream career as an art therapist to help those in need who have difficulty in communicating.
