Painting was my first life goal at 13. Today at 49 I love all forms of art and have grown from a painter to a creative. Now, I don’t really have a favorite form of creating. Method acting is a wonderful favorite. Painting feeds my soul the most.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in how people dedicated their lives to raising me in art. Also inspired by the fact that not many people would dedicate their lives to art and refuse jobs. I am a born artist. I will survive through my art or die because my life’s gift couldn’t feed me. There are not many artist in the world left with that much life’s dedication.
