What is your favorite type of art to create?

I like making altars and aquariums .. but it morphs as I grow into my ages I’ve always always made little shrines for myself and for loved ones. I’ve made dozens by now.. it was always so peaceful to me to arrange little artifacts from those that passed on and new ones I add to them.. they each are little tributes. I learned to build jarquariums with a lover in Maui as we found it so peaceful to just sit and watch the life thrive… I make these to share that love as my favorites. For you to exper

Where do you find inspiration?

From the passed and gone and from art galleries and friends! Mostly my overactive imagination and ideas shared with lovers that were never created. From the past and from things people have said they like that I agree with. Kris Kuksi is a good one imo I also create when I am in sacred emotional states alone .. I love to bless my art with my prayers and good energy so when it is with me or a new soul, it will fill the room energetically with the love that went in it

What would you do with $25,000?

I would give it to my mamas bc they helped hundreds of children and kept 14 of us.. she is an angel nobody saw coming.. thank you for this chance! I lived in Maui for 6 years and missed them ! Not even the peaceful breeze there could keep me from the love of home.. Now that I am older and wiser, I value my moms.. they have always been there and I think it would be so nice to see them travel and live to the fullest. They gave all of their life to us it’s beautiful. Thank you for hearing me
