I love to create art, because I donβt like myself much right now. Art helps me. It gives me something to be surprised by and friends too.π¦β

I don’t really have a favorite type of art to create. But when I do create art, I enjoy using every I guess skill I’ve learned so far. As well as every tool or different type of medium. If I’m on a canvas, I’d use spray paint or markers, even solid markers, paint or water down acrylics that I drip onto the canvas or just throw paint at it. So yeah, I don’t really have a favorite type of art to create. But the TVs are really, really fun. I’d love to get the chance to do 100 inch one.
Where do you find inspiration?I suppose I find inspiration from just inside myself and different people’s works that I come across. I see somebody else’s drawing or sketch or painting and maybe there’s something that I take away from that. Or maybe I’ll hear something and smell something or have a combination of senses and then get this flash in the pan idea like oh, ok, that’s what I want to paint next. Specifically right now I think it’s outdoor locations and other peoples works.
What would you do with $25,000?I would pay off all of my debts to my loved ones and get myself an electric bicycle because I miss it so much. Then I would probably designate a good portion of it to canvases and paint, paint and ink specifically. They can be really expensive. I guess I would also maybe treat myself to a nice dinner with my family. Donate some of it. I would also probably buy myself a new outfit. If there was anything left over, I don’t know. I guess I would just have to wait for that to happen.
