Art has lived in me since childhood; through color, I meet my soul and transform emotions into something the world can truly feel.

My favorite type of art to create combines fluid techniques with surrealism. Working with fluid art allows me to explore organic forms and unexpected movements, while surrealism gives me the freedom to express deeper ideas and emotions. In this process, I feel completely free, and my emotions naturally become part of each piece I create.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration mainly in nature, which I believe is the most beautiful artwork my eyes can witness. It fills me with creativity and a deep sense of connection. At the same time, my emotions also guide me—especially in difficult moments, when I retreat to my space and connect intimately with my materials, finding peace through creating.
What would you do with $25,000?With $25,000, I would immediately find a place to set up my own art studio and invest in a wide range of materials. I want to create my dream space—a place where I can create freely, experiment, and fully immerse myself in painting, filling every canvas with color. Then, I would seek opportunities to exhibit my work, and I would be deeply grateful to this contest for making it possible.
