What is your favorite type of art to create?

I love painting, also love photography but I use many different media types to create art from such as driftwood, seashells, scrap metal, watercolors, acrylic, paint pouring, thrifted items, etc. Paint pouring is my favorite because I never know how it will end up and it's always a beautiful mystery

Where do you find inspiration?

I find my inspiration in visions, I'll see an old piece of junk and instantly I can imagine what I can make from it. Music also gives me great inspiration but I also believe it's just a natural talent I was born with

What would you do with $25,000?

I would start my art studio with 25,000 and invest in myself and my talents
