What is your favorite type of art to create?

I am an interdisciplinary artist, I write, perform, design, sculpt and paint. I love each form and even more, I revel in combining them in untraditional ways.

Where do you find inspiration?

I find inspiration in the woods which is my church,I find calm there. There you find the layers of death and rebirth on layor upon layer. It brings me to the moment im in, knowing my moment of stress and pain are just a season. I also listen to the daily struggles and joys of life for inspiration.

What would you do with $25,000?

I would save myself from loosing my art studio.( Its been a rough year.) and then I would take some time, find a quiet place to just create, paint and write. Ending in new visual art, and a performance.
