Creating art encourages me to express myself and to escape from the world. To process, feel, create, challenge, to learn and to grow.

I love all different genres of art! Especially the uncomfortable, offputting, dark and strange pieces of art. Even the little sweet doodles. Ones that get you taking a second glance, just to hold that second and process what's in front of you. To feel what it's expressing, to listen to the story in the colors and the lines that it is telling you. I love each unique different art piece and think alongside the artist and the way they view things; their own world. It is truly remarkable.
Where do you find inspiration?A big chunk of where I first got inspiration from was because of my Pa. My childhood consisted of a lot of movies. A lot. It was one of our favorite things to do together. The Nightmare Before Christmas, Corpse Bride, 9, Spirit the Stallion, Jim Carrey, Johnny Depp, Tim Burton, Adam Sandler, and all the Pixar, Dreamworks, Disney movies you can think of! They all helped shape me to who I am today. Including my family and my friends who supported me and cheered me on when I had no hope in myself.
What would you do with $25,000?Wowee, that is a lot! In all honesty, I'm not really here for the money, I'm grateful even given the opportunity to try and put myself and my art out there. But if I had $25,000 I wouldn't know what to do with myself quite frankly haha! I know I would feel a pallet of weight off my chest and would be able to help my family and the Trail of Tears park more. To help out my friends and others more that are struggling. To help myself a bit and get my dream PC so I can do digital art again! :}
