Art take me to a peaceful place. I started doing art at the age of eight in a dysfunctional home, it was my way to escape. Love doing art!

Sports illustration, realistic comic book art, portrait, painting, anything that shows emotion and action is usually what I like to paint.
Where do you find inspiration?My inspiration usually comes when I look at other artists work that I truly like. There’s a show that I watch called portrait artist of the year, I would watch it because it really inspires me and it gets me charged up to start a new painting. I keep it on while I am doing my work plus, my inspiration comes when I’m with a group of creative artist.
What would you do with $25,000?Get some new art equipment for my studio and buy some heat press equipment so I will get back into doing T-shirts again, plus if I have money left, I would put it in the bank.
