I have Synesthesia which means I hear colors, and I listen to a lot of music, and my work reflects this. I also create as a form of therapy.

I’m a multi media artist with a focus on fine art. I like to use aspects from other mediums to incorporate them into my work - I like the to add my visions of colors to everyday objects and animals, as well as incorporate film and design tools - although my current work is more freestyle fine art with a focus on color.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration from fashion and cars , and movies and a lot of music especially with my condition I enjoy going to museums to see other techniques and how to use it in my own work. I also take influence from the work of Warhol and Jean Michell Basquiat.
What would you do with $25,000?I would give most of it to my ex wife for her support. I would get some upgrades on my Mini Cooper and finally more art supplies including a Louis Vuitton artists pencil roll.
