I love drawing and painting, but my favorite part of art is mixing materials. I love painting on unconventional canvases and pushing the limits of the materials I’m using in my piece.
Where do you find inspiration?I find a lot of my inspiration internally. I’ve had my fair share of rocky life experiences and my number one outlet has always been making art. My inspiration for making art is the idea that I have the chance to make someone feel something. Everyone who views art takes away something different from the piece. Our experiences might all be different, but those experiences allow us to imbue our own meanings into the art we’re perceiving.
What would you do with $25,000?I would make more art! I would finally have enough for a proper studio space instead of painting in my bedroom. I would also be able to show my art in galleries and be able to pay for my transportation to said galleries.
