What is your favorite type of art to create?

I like portraits and abstract expressionism. It’s a mix of abstract and portrait that creates a unique feel of expression that shows the energy of the piece than the image being the focus only.

Where do you find inspiration?

All around me bout mostly in stories guided by feelings

What would you do with $25,000?

I have no idea yet but he’ll create new work help support other artists behind me and hopefully some opportunities come from that I can build.
