I love to do loose pencil and pen drawings of people in motion and acrylic portraits that capture casual moments. Over the last few years I’ve been interested in digital character art and turning them into small stickers to give away.
Where do you find inspiration?I get a lot of inspiration from nature and being outside. I’m often drawn to interesting lighting and reflections. Sometimes I hear someone say a sentence that creates intense imagery for me, or I see someone in traffic that I can’t get out of my head until it becomes a scene or a character.
What would you do with $25,000?I’d love to own a home that I can have a yard and grow plants. There’s so much that amount of money could do for me to I don’t even know really where to begin. I would just be grateful.
