What is your favorite type of art to create?

I create surreal human conditions, often with a darkly lit hope. In an effort to draw attention to the emotional state of our collective consciousness. I believe it’s important for my artwork to relate to life’s struggles in a meaningful dreamlike sense of self.

Where do you find inspiration?

I draw inspiration from the many life experiences that I have thrown myself into over the years. From those wild creatures I’ve encountered along the way and the endless journey of learning and loving life in all of its beautiful forms.

What would you do with $25,000?

I would use a portion of the winnings to invest in my beautiful baby daughter’s future and also I would use a portion to publish my children’s books.
