Creating art feels like therapy, it feels like with each brush stroke a burden,worry,fear is getting smaller as the painting gets color.

I love to create anime art,the characters are so happy and full of emotion, you wish you could be as trusting and courageous as them. I love that this art has taught me so much about painting and as I find more of my own style I can use it to further my art.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in everyday things, flowers, vibes and songs. Sometimes when painting I find inspiration while listening to a song and if my mood matches that song or the genre of music while painting I might have an idea and sketch it really quick, or it helps me come up with an idea for space that needs to be filled on the painting I’m working on. Inspiration comes at different moments of my day. Our life and experiences create art and ideas sometimes it takes a good song to bring it out.
What would you do with $25,000?If I had the honor to win $25,000 I would invest it in myself for a better future by helping pay off a huge chunk of my student loans. This would ease some of this burden looking towards my son’s future as well.
