I love textures and just seeing something in this crazy world that creates a feeling of warmth and peace. Little things can mean so much.

Drawing and painting has always been my go to, however I recently have enjoyed the challenge of multimedia and having to plan how everything will coexist and connect together on a piece.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration around me. I know that sounds cliche, but I literally will be having a bad day. I'll take my dogs for a walk, and then like the other day I saw these sweet little bees pollinating the flowering trees by my condo and I was like OMG I need a picture of these! I think I want to do a painting later! It will turn my whole day around.
What would you do with $25,000?I would pay some bills down honestly and it would probably help me to have the money and time to do more art. I would love to be more independent, and create a legacy for my family. I have several adult kids I want to leave them something they can be proud of and say that was what my Mom created!
