My favorite type of art would be painting abstract designs on canvases! Painting has been an enjoyable experience for me! Art has a way of relaxing someone. It can also help someone come to terms with who they are! In my own journey, I’ve realized that my art pieces are not like other artists , it’s unique! I’ve embraced my creativity fully! I hope to inspire others to be their authentic selves and express their creativity boldly and with joy!
Where do you find inspiration?My inspiration comes from my relationship with God! I believe He put this desire in my heart to paint as a teenager and it has brought so many others and myself peace! I’m praying to continue to bless people with the gift that God has given me!
What would you do with $25,000?With this reward, I would like to purchase necessary items for the growth of my business! This would also help me meet my financial goals. Along with that, I would like to sponsor artists who may need financial assistance to start living their dream of creativity like I did!
