I don’t make art I give feeling a poem when needed or a simple smile to remind you that simple things are also art and love:)

My favorite type of art to create is poetry and photography. Poetry lets me turn emotions and thoughts into words, while photography helps me show the beauty and meaning in the things I see. Through my art, I share pieces of myself and the way I experience life.
Where do you find inspiration?I find inspiration in memories and in simple everyday things. Sometimes it comes from seeing a butterfly, noticing the way light hits something, or smelling a small scent that suddenly brings back old memories. I think beauty and meaning are hidden in little moments people often overlook.
What would you do with $25,000?With $25,000, I would use it to pay for my immigration papers and finish covering my lawyer fees. After that, I would help my family with the legal expenses too, because supporting them and building a stable future means everything to me.
