I dream a LOT. Dreams are what I like to think are another crazy universe from my brain. I want to make art that shows people that world.

Currently it is 3D art, it allows me to view my art from all angles and really capture all the details I wish to create without being confined to flat 2D. I started out painting though. Sometimes when I'm painting I get lost in that dream world of mine and paint for hours on end without any thoughts other than what I saw in my head and what I wanted to see on the canvas. It's truly a gift to be an artist and have so much passion for all types of art.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration through nature. It is the most important thing we have on this earth and I like to be inspired by what it has to offer. Animals, leaves, shells, weather, etc... I also find a lot of inspiration from my peers. Being in an art program like New media allows me to gain so much knowledge and ideas from my other creative friends is the best. The chaotic portion of my art comes directly from my habit of day dreaming, my imagination always has a story to tell.
What would you do with $25,000?This money will go toward helping me build a creative community/workshops that encourage more people to become artists! I see the rise in AI and want people to know that they don't have to worry about these things as long as they keep supporting the art community by creating. Artists can come to the workshop and express themselves without the fear of not being supported emotionally or financially.
