We were born artists, kids write on walls and make images on notebooks, I question myself when we stopped, I just want to express myself.

I like painting but large paintings with details and depth are my favorite.I usually work with acrylic but lately I’ve been working with solvent pastel. I have another type of art, but it’s making contemporary furniture.
Where do you find inspiration?It’s hard to say where we can find inspirations. Sometimes it just come to my mind. Sometimes I saw something that i like and i can make something better out of that. A lot of my inspiration comes from family my kids from friends and it comes from their needs, a lot of my inspiration comes from my childhood, you know where I came from and where I am right now, it’s a big inspiration in my life and my art.
What would you do with $25,000?I would make payments on my house and help my kids, mom, and siblings. Also would buy more art supplies to keep on making more art. I really need the money to get my mortgage on date.
