I love to create art because I cannot help it. I am a conduit for God. Even when I have no idea what I’m doing, a beautiful piece comes out.

I like to create without knowing what in the world I’m doing. Some people call it outsider art. It’s deeply rooted in psychology and it does not ask for permission. It is what it comes out to be and that’s what I love the most about creating outsider art.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in EVERYTHING. I learned a long time ago to be as grateful as possible and so I’ve trained myself to see the silver lining in anything and anyone. My inspiration are my teachers.
What would you do with $25,000?With &25,000, I would spend it on gaining life experience which I cannot do in my current financial situation. Maybe a medicinal retreat in a different country— maybe have an ayahuasca experience! Anything that shifts an artists perspective is coveted!
