I create art to see and share the beauty all around.

My favorite type of art to create is photography! I've loved it since I was little running around with my aunt's camera. However I love all sorts of art too! In my free time I also like to write poetry and create music.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration from my surroundings. Whether that’s my community or Mother Nature or architecture I try and find a story or a snapshot to tell/show all over.
What would you do with $25,000?If I were to win the $25,000 I would use it to further my careers in schooling and supplies. Those careers being an artist and a fire paramedic. I want to help those around me and be able to share my experiences through my art. It’s my passion whether it’s a small and silly thing or a big and serious thing. I’d also use it to help my family out any way I could.
