What is your favorite type of art to create?

Every medium I touch is a distinct love affair between thought and form. While my heart finds a rhythmic, effortless grace in designing garments (weaving intellect into the very fabric of identity) I see no boundary between my passions. Whether I am sculpting stillness from clay, coaxing warmth from raw wood, or lost in the vivid depth of a canvas, it is all one singular art. Even the way I care for horses or the profound, sacred journey of being a father is a masterpiece in motion.

Where do you find inspiration?

My inspiration is anchored in the profound intersection of lived experience and aesthetic expression. For me, art is a sophisticated medium for synthesizing personal history into evocative visual narratives. Everything I create serves as a curated reflection of life's nuances, and offers a compelling and professional testament to the power of perspective-driven artistry.

What would you do with $25,000?

I would use $25,000 to help launch a pioneering multidisciplinary arts center and equestrian hub, creating a sanctuary for the working art class. This seed investment establishes a model for sustainability through residencies that provide housing, stipends and studio space. By integrating horsemanship and agricultural life, it gives artists profound emotional healing and inspiration. From creative workshops to youth rodeo camps, this space will foster spiritual growth and communal restoration.
