Visual art. I love bringing ideas to life on canvas and in my sketchbook. One day I hope to explore other mediums like photography and sculpting, but for now, there’s work to be done on canvas.
Where do you find inspiration?The beauty of God’s creation inspires me—people, animals, and nature. I find inspiration in it all.
What would you do with $25,000?I'd pay off my personal debts first, then I'd buy more art supplies. My local Michael's craft store would know me by name.
