I create art to relive important moments in my life. I want to remember the little moments and painting them helps me to do that.

My favorite type of art to create is about my experiences with my friends and family! Acrylic paint and ceramics are some of my favorite mediums to use to express that creativity. Although, I love being creative and using new materials all the time. I also really enjoy creating with collage materials and creating mixed medium artwork.
Where do you find inspiration?My friends and family are my biggest inspirations along with nature! My love for my friends and family and their never-ending support of my passion fuel creativity and push me to create my art. Nature also inspires me constantly; I love being in nature. Finding a new hiking spot, or a place to hang my hammock, or even painting and drawing a new place bring me peace and joy.
What would you do with $25,000?There is so much I would like to do with the $25,000! I could start a life long dream of mine to transform a van into a movable livable home so I can travel to new places. Although what I would ultimately do with the money is open a community studio space for artists in my area. I want to create a space where artists can learn from and share art with one another. A safe space and welcoming space for all community members to come and experience art! Maybe even run a class or two for others!
